It’s the big V-Day and not the military invasion one but the personal space invasion one. Anyhow, I got little something special for you on this lovely day of loving people lovingly and I hope that you love it!

What happens when I decide to not do episode notes and just spitball? You get the longest episode to date! And on top of that, I still have to split it up because I ramble and like to tell off-topic stories but hey, all in the name of fun content!

Following up a more serious episode about rehab with another fun one! I got two really fun stories for you in this one so sit back, relax, and enjoy!

“Sitting quietly, doing nothing, Spring comes and grass grows by itself.” - Zenrin Kushû
