I’m reading Atlas Shrugged right now, and it feels like I will be forever. I generally tear through books, and if this were any normal book I would be done, but at page 350, I’m barely a third of the way through it. That said, I am actually thoroughly enjoying it.

St. Baldrick's
Well people, I’m shaving my head again this year to raise money for children’s cancer research via St. Baldrick’s. If you are interested in donating towards the cause, or just need some good karma in your life, you can donate here. Much love, tumblr.
