Giving Thanks For The Gearing of the Fulling

Man, it’s been a little while since we’ve been here. There’s been a nice little gap in cards for picking purposes (that we remembered before bell time were happening).

It’s weird to say that on the first day of February we’re just getting in our first predictions of the year, but that’s the way the calendar crumbles.
