Hi everyone! I’ve been busy lately. Not “launching a start-up” busy. Not even “training for a marathon” busy. Just regular, gloriously average “trying to be a functioning human” busy.

This morning, after completing my daily chores like a responsible adult (yes, I deserve a medal), I sat down with my newly purchased crime thriller, ready to be immersed in a world of mystery, deceit, and~hopefully~some gruesome plot twists.
