It’s been a pretty mild week. I watched a terrible movie. Soap Commander re-opened for business (Congrats!). It rained too much. I think the most exciting thing this week was that insane first lap of the Spanish Grand Prix! But other than that, not too much happened around here. I’m thankful for weeks like these.

It’s been a strangely cool spring around here. I think March was actually nicer than May, but that may have simply been my perception coming off a chilling winter. I think spring is always remembered warmer than it actually is. How many people go away for Memorial Day only to wish they brought a sweater and not their swimsuit?
Weekend Reading
Weekend Reading It’s been a quieter week around here. My wife took our daughter up to New York for a few days (her first trip!). They’re visiting Dylan’s Candy Bar, the American Girl store, and something called The Gazillion Bubble Show. She actually got to go on stage, and loved…
