Clearing the Browser Tabs – The Congested Friday Edition
With me, colds take one of two forms. Either it hits me so hard it lays me out for a couple days or it just hangs on me like a pack of monkeys wearing lead-lined body armor. This week, I’ve been dealing with a cold of the latter kind and it’s slowed down my writing this week. Yes, I know that bloggers are supposed to crank out compelling content like a crack-addled lab rat whacks the button that dispenses another line from the magic happiness dispenser, but if you don’t have compelling content, you don’t have it. And I didn’t have it.
The good news is that I’m feeling better this evening, which bodes well for tomorrow and the weekend. Stay tuned.
