RegDay Reminder!

And once again, Teresa the Ungrateful Little Bastard and I are rocking the Hudson Valley Mall this Saturday! I have to give a public plug here to her: Let me tell you, she is awesome! When she says that she will do something, she does it..I bow down to her infinate photo copy getting greatness! And I really look forward to some quality adoption time together!

On a happy note, my good pal Eileen hooked me up with a reporter she knew over at the BlueStone Press, a local hamlet paper so small that they don’t have web presense. But small or not, at least they ARE doing a story on RegDay here!

So if you happen to be in the area…..please point yourself out!
