Friends of Dave #251: fun and funds
What Can I Say?
Long week this week on this end and it's a three day weekend for many of you.
If I am being honest I'm kind of tapped out this week, Friends. I got nothing really interesting to share, so fans of the preamble please forgive me.
Some ideas for you that you could do instead of reading my thoughts:
Maybe you can go pumpkin picking.
Go apple picking.
Go to a music festival. While you are there, get in the mosh pit.
Catch up on some past Friends of Dave issues you may have missed.
Read up on the lastest articles I shared. Become a follower of Snoop Dogg while you are at it.
In the meantime, take care of y'all body, take care of y'all chicken and take care of y'all mentals.
Have a good one!
XOXO
Dave

Humans have a drive to eat. We have a drive to drink. We have a drive to reproduce. Curiosity is no different. WARNING: longer read alert, but worth it if you have the time.
