I'm still riding the Halloween candy sugar rush and yesterday's extra hour of sleep didn't hurt either. Even better? The relentless political spam texts should finally stop after tomorrow (aka Election Day). If your ballot is buried under a pile of unopened mail, now's the time to dig it out.

Speaking of important decisions, it’s only Monday, but we know you’re thinking about a midweek pick-me-up. Let’s make it easy: Pretty Sick is in town and we’ve got your spot on the guest list.
