what we Halls want to do in 2013...

So turns out I am a horrible blogger... and I probably start every post this way, but it's true. Todd is great at posting regularly and everything he writes about is always fun and intellectual. Pretty much my brain needs some serious exercising so I'm going to really try harder to write more and attempt to conjure some smart sounding material. (: I found that as I kept up with my fun to-do list that I wrote and posted more... so I'm going to make a new one (because Wisconsin is a new and happening place) and see what comes of it.
