I too often have things that keep me from linking for you guys, and I'm sorry about that. But I'm not going to bullshit you about yesterday - I fell asleep watching The Simpsons marathon and couldn't pull my ass out of bed early enough to finish a post before work.

And yes, I'm also currently watching The Simpsons marathon, why do you ask?

Hey, shall we link?
