FYI for the 13 people and 576 bots that’ll see this: I wrote a book. You can pre-order it now (if you’re into that). It’s maybe sometimes humorous and maybe sometimes amusing and maybe sometimes not. I like it tho, and I’d love for you to like it too. a.co/d/0jh2h7vp

There’s a crossing guard that I see most days on my way to pick up my son from pre-k. He’s a jolly Santa like figure. As he ushers kids (junior high) across the street, he offers each one a fist bump. The kids return the gesture with a smile. It’s fun to see.

Forgot a spoon for my yogurt and ended up finding two straws in a forgotten drawer in the break room and now I have straw chopsticks.

Not to brag, but my book just hit #985,175 on Amazon’s best sellers list. Can’t wait to see the NYT article dedicated to numbers 985,170-985,180.

This is my dog’s friend, Quacky. If it looks like he’s giving me a dirty look, it’s because he is. The other day we all went out to eat and I left him with the bill.

A couple of my co-workers had Lebanese food for lunch yesterday. Today, one of them called in sick, the food perhaps playing a role. The other one, upon hearing this news, said, “I’m sorry to hear that he’s sick.” And then, after a brief pause, he added, “I falafel.”

I know we’re over a month into 2018, but I’m still having a tough time writing 2018.
