Some days a title is just too hard.
It's true. Not a book title, those I enjoy coming up with. I'm talking about a blog post title. Today it's just too much. Anywho, onward.

Another rainy day in NYC.
It's a song. I'm not in NYC. I'm in CHCH. But the rainy part stands. 🙂 The last few days I've been keeping my mind busy with [EMP] and it's coming along. It's also much fun.
