My Quarter-Century Life Crisis
JUST KIDDING! I’m not having a crisis because I’m way more awesome now than I ever have been. Nonetheless, I’m writing this to rally the troops.

Farewell 2012: I ain’t got no money but I’m richer
If there was a word to 1-up lucky, I think I would use it here to describe 2012. Here is some background necessary to understand this post. Although my years in college have been fruitful as far the relationships I’ve created, everything else really sucked. I mean really, really sucked. I had multiple car accidents … Continue reading
