Please, punderstand.

Feel free to be upset with me. I mean, where have I been for so long? I know, it's completely unacceptable and this is my apology. I'd prefer to apologize in person but, well, you guys are all over the country and some of you (probably not but I can be hopeful) are reading this and I don't even know who you are or where you are but I appreciate the fact that you are still reading after such a hiatus! With that said, I will inform you that it has been an eventful and busy hiatus. Surely you can forgive me.

I know this is coming from left field, but I wanted to discuss my love for puns and plays on words. I'll try not to go overboard with this particular post but my friend Max and I just had a conversation incorporating Illinois towns and when that happens, it's hard to stop. I think I can thank my family and their sense of humor for this gift. I live for puns. Why else are we on this earth? I'm sure you have had some idea about my love throughout my blog posts but I thought I would honor the wittiness right here and now. Punfortunately, I cannot count how many great phrases I have heard throughout my life. My brother John also cooks up some great puns. It would be punfair not to mention that. It's all relative.

I suppose I will end this before it turns into five blog posts. You have no idea how carried away I can get! Hopefully it won't be such a long time before my next post. I'm truly sorry. Take care of yourself and everyone around you.

Best,

Anne
