Gooooooood evening!The first week back at work has been quiet (a few people aren't back until next week) but with a lot of work being done to prepare ourselves for the rest of the year.

Good times.This weekend I'll be moving furniture into my apartment (goodbye, air mattress!) and setting it up to be a real house that I can live in. Huzzah!Today's Fishwick papers is a real good'un. I hope you enjoy it.
