Help. Me. What the flying pig is with my allergies right now. Seriously. The minute I hopped off the plane in St. Louis it felt like as if my nose was a lamp post filled with moths. Slight exaggeration (but not really). Think about it. That would literally slay the feather in a tickling nose contest. […]

  Cinco De Drinko, is what the better half of my life referred to this Holiday as. Formerly known as the Golden Age. (Neither golden, nor an age, discuss).  The days where you could eat and drink whatever you please and wake up knowing that a Frank White was in your near future to clear […]

Things I didn’t do last night: this. Things I did instead. Watched Lemonade on repeat. Maybe four times. Maybe more. I even made a nasty lemonade drink with a little hot sauce as attempted tribute to the album. Definite fail. However the picture didn’t totally suck so I still posted it on social media. Word to […]

So, I hope your weekend was as wild and crazy as mine was.  Just kidding. I had the early bird special with my future roommates. And by roommates I mean my parents. Yes. I fully realize I’m about to commit social suicide by living with the people who birthed me, considering the fact that I’m in […]
