Our guitars arrived on the UPS truck yesterday, and so when Brian and I got home we tuned them up and messed around a bit. Brian is already much, much better than I am, and I have always been a learn-by-ear musician, even when I could read music, so it will take me awhile. It’s […]

I need to quit eating white carbs. Hoo boy. My freaky freaking body, man. I love how a size zero skirt is loose around my waist, but I struggle to pull it over my ass, and then it is still too long. Thanks, apparel industry. You have found a way to create clothing that is […]
