Ugh. Today feels like its dragging on forevvvverrrrr. I just want to get on to the part where I start celebrating National Margarita Day. I know some of you look down on this method of delivering sub-standard tequila to one’s stomach bearably, but I’m a fan. Not that there’s anywhere in my neck of the woods to get a decent adult slushie margarita, but we’ll make our own on the rocks and enjoy. But not too many. I have an all-day mini-conference tomorrow. And then off to the bleak North next week. So these are my last links of February, most likely. Ignore the hell out of them!
