Since I was up way too early this morning and since I was alarmingly productive, I decided to go over to see my friends at Sublime Donuts.
Deliciousness happened.

And since I was due for my annual "lube and tune"at Emory, I picked up a couple dozen of Sublime's finest to take over to The Winship Cancer Center.

One good deed for the day is now finished.
Back to being a jackass.
Thank you!
