Hey there,

I’m just gonna come right out and say it: It’s been a week. The universe has been conspiring against my getting anything but the bare minimum done to fulfill (most of) my obligations, and I’m toast.

So, since there’s nothing on the calendar for today (except a BIG birthday for a friend, neighbor, and paid contributor who will remain unnamed), I’m going to take the day off and come back tomorrow - hopefully refreshed; definitely with an uplifting story about some Burlingtonians.

This Weekend in Burlington

Here’s what to look forward to this weekend:

• May 14, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM - Sculpture Dedication and Ukrainian Cultural celebration at the Sculpture Park
• May 15, 9:30 - 11:30AM - Clean up behind Bed, Bath, and Beyond, sponsored by Keep Burlington Beautiful. Please note, this litter includes glass and other potentially dangerous material. Wear long pants, sneakers, and gloves. Trash bags and latex gloves will be provided.

Friday Funny

Okay, this joke is kind of niche. And it’s kind of a dad joke. But it still made me giggle, and so I present to you the Niche Dad Joke of the Week:

Alright, enough of that. Hope you enjoy your Friday!

P.S. I hope you enjoyed my 90s rock reference.

P.P.S. My schedule is opening up a bit, and I’d love to log some podcast episodes before summer comes and things change yet again. If you have something to talk about on the podcast, or if you know someone who you think should come on, give me a holler. I can record as early as next week!
