III. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Well, Dave…. We made it. You’re on your way home right now – you should be rolling in around 10:30pm. It’s been ten full days. In all, it really wasn’t that bad. Our kids are actually kind of cool, and it’s been nice getting to know them. I may even miss them when I run away from home tonight around, say, 10:31pm. I’m grateful I had this blog. I’m even more grateful that my kids have such an amazing father, and I have such an incredible partner, that every day without you SUCKS FISH. See you soon.
