A Tale of a Bunch of Cities
The following is a stupid story, but we have a lot of Pepperidge Farms cookies around the office this week, so it keeps haunting me every time I see them. I'm hoping that by blogging it, I will exorcise my demons. Once upon a time, my family received a Pepperidge Farms variety pack of cookies. "Rock on," thought I, because I sometimes think in terms like that, even if they are not things I would say out loud.

Graduation countdown: 35 days
