So, here we are already one full month into the new year, and almost halfway through the second. Holy moly, my Gramma was right, time does seem to pass at the speed of light with every advancing year. Last week I officially turned another year older and while turning fifty …
Well, 2018 has come and gone and mostly, I’d say it was a resounding success, for the most part. ANY YEAR that your blackened liver doesn’t shoot out of your ass is a GOOD year in my humble opinion and that, of course, completely rules out 2015. My point is …
The other day I saw two of my co-workers talking in the hallway and as I passed them, overheard one of them say, “ask Jen, she’s old“. Naturally, I couldn’t wait to see what was coming next. A few moments later, the other one of them appeared before me and …
