Ice cream (mmm… especially my favorites: strawberry, pumpkin, fudge ripple, cookies and cream, rocky road, mango, raspberry, peanut butter,…ok I have a bit [...]

I woke up at 8:00 when my alarm went off and managed to turn it off, take some tylenol, and debate emailing in sick before I gave up completely and burrowed under the blanket.
