Playing Catch Up

I think the harder I try to catch up, the more I get behind. Pop's birthday is today, and I made the customary pecan pie. We'll deliver it tonight when we go pick them up to drive to PAWNEE to eat FISH.

It's got to be an old people thing. Who else drives 30 miles one way to eat fish on a Friday, and it's not even lent?
