This week, I'll be writing the weekly DEV newsletter + posting the Top 7, so that's my big focus for today and tomorrow.

Aside from this, I plan to craft a little survey to send out to mods to collect some thoughts and opinions on how to improve the Mod Center.

Later on this week, the team has off Thursday and Friday for Thanksgiving, so I'm looking forward to seeing my family and eating way too much food, lol.

In my spare time, I'm trying to learn a song on guitar — "One Big Holiday" by My Morning Jacket. It's a great tune — pretty hard-rocking in a classic rock, bluesy kinda way.
