Half a day off is batter than no day off

Half a vacation day is almost as good as a complete vacation day but nowhere near is good a vacation week.

My friend Pat offered his mad photography skillz to take a picture of me for the newspapers. They asked for a picture of my smiling face and since I have an allergy to cameras, I don't have such a thing. I called Pat and he graciously offered to take my picture.

At least I think it was gracious...

So now I have a picture to send them to go along with that press release I sent them last week. That means they will probably publish soon and everyone will know that I am a candidate for selectman in the fine town of Wilbraham.

That's when the fun begins.
