Hello, friends! Hope you had a good Friday. Did you enjoy your week? I’m finishing up my last few days of the semester, and am itching to say hello to summer vacation! I can just hear the sound of the can of Barq’s root beer popping open, can’t you? Speaking of fun, I did have lunch with our guyspert Kasey this week (hope he’s OK with me briefly mentioning this…), and it was nice to see each other.
