May the odds be ever in my favor

I’m not good at goodbyes. And by “not good,” I mean I tend to avoid them all together (One big exception would be crying in an alley with my little before I abandoned her to study abroad, but I digress…). With a major chapter of my life coming to a...

Thought to Ponder: College

I just returned from a night out with 3 incredible women watching Avenue Q. Muppet sex, masturbation, porn, racism, homosexuality… all crammed into a neat and tidy little musical! It kinda of got me thinking a little deeper about school, though. Odd, I know. But there’s a particular song in...
