A Return and a Departure All at Once, Kinda Like a Layover.

Dear Blog readers, I am departing from my regularly scheduled dry and incredibly witty humor for a brief moment. The comedic side show shall return as scheduled, well as scheduled as I’ve ever been.   It’s been a while. Like, a long while. Life kinda, sorta got completely away from me the past few days […]

Family Easter celebration

It’s not only Easter, but warm enough to ditch tights and even walk outside with out 64 layers on. So while this means I have run the ol’ venus over the limbs more often, it also means I can wear dresses without worrying about static cling, runs in tights, and weather or not I have […]

Jesus is His Homeboy
