Nenea Hoffman copyright Sweatpants And Coffee LLC 2019 Text over drawing of a coffee cup. A Wish for the Week Ahead May you discover at least one good thing in every day, even if you have to put on your glasses and squint. May you carry hope in your pocket, courage in your heart, and love in both hands. May you remember it is not mandatory to respond to ignorance, foolery, and/or provocation; your peace is valuable and besides, you're busy with more important matters. May your coffee sustain you, may your kindness guide you, and may your humor keep you out of jail.

It seems my love for copyediting is inherited!

My grandpa owned a shop that made engraved plaques. My grandma made one of this note he left for someone because it was so him and made her laugh.

There's a reason this book is banned. More people need to read it, especially now.

I usually like Life Is Good T-shirts, and for five seconds I loved this one ... until I saw the periods.

Why? I can't unsee it now.

The poem of Fibonacci by Brian Bilston Word Crunching I wrote a poem on a page but then each line grew by the word sum of the previous two until I started to worry at all these words coming with such frequency becuase, as you can see, it can be easy to run out of space when a poem gets all Fibonacci sequency.
