Two plates for a single last week and two bills for five this week. That's a nice pair of milestones in a short period of time. Congrats!

Sarge: That's what I'm talking about right there! I know that feeling must be amazing. Evident long term progress is what it is all about. Imagine 23 to 29. Sick.

Bunny: Definitely, I'm on it!
