Dear Bobby,
Do you watch the debates? There have been about a dozen so far with more to go. Sometimes I accidentally find a show like John Stewart or Morning Joe with highlights. I find watching debates can be really stressful.. . lots of tension in hearing the question, listening for the answer, . . . Then of course I get angry with the answers.
The Celentano brand of eggplant parmigiana is delicious. I think I might have had two as well.
You are probably not sabotaging yourself. One day here or there can still fit into your overall plan.
