Sorry-I couldn’t get a ride.  
Maybe someday I’ll get to a Dopefest. If they would ever have one in Cleveland.

Nate, I forgot to tell you. Your wife is suffering from some serious Starbucks Chai Tea jonesing. I found an excellent recipe that she can use to whip up some chai mix from scratch, and make instant chai tea whenever she likes.

If I were her, I’d cut the sugar in half, at least. Also, when she’s grinding the stuff in the blender, tell her to let it sit for a couple minutes before lifting the lid or she’ll suck the powder into her lungs and that hurts. But other than that, it’s the best recipe I’ve found.

Sometimes I mix it up and give it to friends as gifts, it’s that good. Tell me what she thinks.

I’ll let her know. But she’s dodging caffeine and alcohol while breastfeeding.

Damn! I was sure no one saw me with only one leg, talking to UncleBeer. And the guy with the concussion. 😃
