So here’s what happened. As some of you know, I spent my five-day birthday weekend staying with my friend Andrew in LA. I didn’t take a five-day vacation just to celebrate my birthday, lest you think I have some kind of cushy job where I can do things like that. Rather, we were forced to take last Thursday and Friday...
