It FREAKED MY BROTHER OUT though. When my nephew was born, I was handling him like I handle any baby and he was holding his breath the hold time. I was like, dude, I do this all day, every day. Cool your tits.

Haha I totally understand. I wrote about this very concept in yesterday’s post. It gets boring after a while, when all you can do is...nothing. You’ve read all the advice, you’re doing all you can, and now all you can do is wait. But it’s a good problem to have, I suppose.

This is how it's done. And Ralph? STFU - you are no longer relevant. YOUR former bid for attention put us smack dab IN this mess.

Yeah...the country includes huge swaths of land that are outside the Northeast Corridor.
