I've got sausage and hash browns in the oven and bacon on the stove. I'll make them a cheesy omelette and everyone is happy.  Or that's the general plan. I'm heading to my 'bestie's' new place afterward. She just moved into the city after more than 20 years in her house. It's a bitter sweet situation. Last night was app...

If I lay here... if I just lay here... It has been a very long week.
