The last coat of polyurethane is going on today, and the books will be going in tomorrow :D

No Podcast Yet...

Sorry. Yesterday I had to take one of the twins to DC for a doctor's appointment, which ended up taking most of the day. This morning I'm prepping for a Misquoting Jesus recording, so Josh and I can't record now, either! We're going to try and get one done over the weekend, but if we don't make it then we'll see you next week :)

Podcast tomorrow!

A storm last night knocked out our internet, and it's only just come back online, so this week's episode of the Hammurabi Hangout will be recorded and uploaded tomorrow :)
