So if you’re reading this, it means Noel and I are on a plane headed south, or better yet we’ve already landed and we’re enjoying some Florida sunshine. That little bit of color I developed this summer is sadly faded and now i’m back to looking like my are-you-really-alive-you’re-so-pale self, so I really need this [...]
