I got fan mail this morning. There are nicer ways to start off a day, but not many. :) It was posted to an old “currently working on” tagged entry, and that reminded me I hadn’t done one of those entries for…ages. :) So I thought I’d do one before I went to work, because, as you know Bob, it’s better to do aaaaaaaanything else than go to work. :) January 2008 (200*8*!)
