Today is National Coffee Cake and Caramel Popcorn Day. Oh good, that's what I'll plan to have for dinner :)

National Networking Week and National Public Health Week begin today. Thanks, corporate network, for allowing me to publish this on the Internet. Oh, what's that? Oh, THAT kind of network...ok!
