Hey y'all! I was looking for a nice quote to start this post off with, and I didn't find one so have this instead, I guess. Oh well.

Hey y'all! Tomorrow morning, I get on a big plane and head off on a big adventure, boldly going where no man has gone before. That isn't true. Many a man has gone on an adventure.

Hey y'all! I don't know about you, but this past week was something else. Not in a particular good way, it was literally just something else.
