Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

man, world's in trouble and I want to be with my whole tribe.

Happy birthday, Tom!

Love to the Zmayhems. Let us know if we can do anything else, okay?

Thank you so much, Juliana. You and Martin and Deb have been absolute champs.

It's going to be the Worst Birthday Ever for a lot of people in the coming months. Here's to your next birthday being a whole lot better next year.

Because books.

Tom and I can be quarantine birthday buddies. Mine is Monday. I'm making my own cake (which is kind of a dream come true, really).

Our wings are not tired.

I'd recommend a bakery near you, Amy, but nope, can't do that.

I'm excited to make it! The bakery where I got my very favorite mocha cake since I was a kid has changed, so this is my chance to recreate it. And the pastry chef at the restaurant the bakery owner also owns gave me some tips on the mocha flavor.

She finally responded to me, by the way. After I texted her this morning, reminding her I was still waiting.

I saw a note somewhere that, since so many people are taking up baking, a woman was challenged to make a toilet paper cake. She made one - looks like a roll of toilet paper, when you slice into it, it's layers of chocolate cake with white icing.

Mmmmmm, cake.

Happy birthday, Scola! Did we meet in Austin or am I thinking of someone else?

All the -ma to the Zmayhem family; I'm so sorry you have to go through this.
