I feel like the media drives things almost to the point of hysteria about this, and I'm so tired of it.

It will be interesting to check back in 6 months and see if this is still the case for y'all. I sincerely hope that we are ALL doing great 6 months from now, and we can look back at this and LAUGH . . .
