You guys. Last Friday was crazy. It was one of those days where it felt like all I did was run in circles, getting as little as possible accomplished. You know how it is when you undertake a big cleaning job, and before you know it you have piles of little cleaning jobs before you […]
Viva Valentinus!
Okay, listen. My confession is this: I don’t really celebrate Valentine’s Day. I think that the coolest thing that I ever did on Valentine’s Day was attend a Deicide show at Harpo’s, and since then I seem to have personally retired the holiday… Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t believe in love.
