“We’re all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that’s all.” ― John Hughes, The Breakfast Club
Normal seems dead now. Wild fires, a pandemic, record setting heat waves and constant noise from every direction. I’m trying to stay focused on the important stuff–the things that are important to me at least. I can’t speak for everyone. Make good stuff, solve problems and try and try and look out for my loved ones. And links, oh yeah, find links to share.
