It’s been a rough week month year. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to celebrate the end of it by staying home, swaddling myself in bubble wrap, watching TV, eating all of the carbs and counting down the seconds until this fucking thing ends ONCE AND FOR ALL. To you and yours, I wish you a much brighter, happier, less-death-filled 2017. We’ll see you in a better place. We hope.
