I don’t compulsively tell puns…that doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy it from time to time…I can be very puny! Fine, occasionally I just can’t resist.

That’s All I Have to Say About That
There’s actually a word for this! Hm…I’m just leaving this one as it is. ‘Til next time, Jessica

This is a technique that I’ve read about, and I’ve seen a view pieces in museums. The broken pieces veined with gold are truly gorgeous.

Waking up from a good dream just sets the day off right…unless, it is so wonderful you don’t want to wake up. I had no idea there was actually a word for that feeling. ‘Til next time, Jessica
