My wife, in pain from a recent tooth pulling a couple of days ago, was still nice enough to cook a delicious chicken dinner for me Thursday night. Perhaps it was love that kept her stirring those mashed potatoes; then again it might have been the painkillers. Either way, it’s really nice having prescription painkillers [...]
