A million years ago, I started to draft this post after lifting the idea from another blogger. Check out Essential Doctor Who, who hopefully doesn't mind that I'm half a decade behind.

My 200th Blog Post!
Yeah, yeah so I know I've had this blog since January of 2013, and in six-plus years I should probably have more than 200 posts but I have excuses, okay?

Back to the Blog- Summer Recap
A long, shrill, continuous beep . . . a flatline . . . Get the cart! Plug in the paddles! Rubs paddles together and places them on WOAW's metaphorical chest . . . All clear! Jess yells, as she shocks her blog alive. A quick blip . . . then another . . . LIFE!... Continue Reading →
