Summary
This week Melanie and I talk about my ongoing post-live show / post-graduation recovery efforts (so much sleeping) and how I accidentally created a challenge for myself when I went to a movie with Alex. We also discuss how we can either be birds or squirrels in this life, and lo, the nature continues to teach us.
Plus, Melanie shares her A&M baseball thoughts and concerns, we both offer some updates on what we've been watching and reading, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.
Hope you enjoy!
