Ever have one of those Monday mornings? You hit the snooze as many times as you can, and when you finally drag yourself out of bed – still tired – the dog wants extra attention, chomping on his squeakiest toy as you choke down that first cup of coffee, and you wrack your brain for a blog post idea, with the deadline looming, and keep coming up empty?
