Happy Friday

I wasn’t going to post anything today, because I’m busy and I didn’t have something incredibly, fabulously, awesomely great to share with you.
But it occurred to me that I hope I have a good weekend. And that you have a good weekend too.
My brain’s been in overdrive lately. Making mountains out of mole [...]

This is a spider. This is a spider on drugs.

I saw this last week when my boyfriend got it in an e-mail. But then I saw it again this morning … made my day.

Rugby Bits & Bites … Yeah! Friday!!

Just a couple of quickies …
• A Reuters article reporting that caffeine may help ease post-workout soreness … just one more reason I can continue to deny my addiction to Diet Mt. Dew. And yes, if you read the whole article, it also mentions all the negative effects of caffeine. Whatever. Better than crack.
