Freedom: The Introduction What the heck is freedom? Here in good ole’ ‘Merica, we tend to think that freedom means we can vote and write about politics in newspapers and we can go to church. Sadly, I think we’ve so closely associated freedom with politics that when we think about spiritual freedom, we only think … Continue reading →

Yesterday, the conveyor broke at work. In case you didn’t know, that means sudden death at a dry cleaner’s (you can’t get peoples’ clothes). After that, a coworker hit the wrong breaker and we lost electricity up front, which means sudden death with no access to a cash register or credit card machine. I kept … Continue reading →

I watched as a customer simultaneously demanded that we pay for her ruined 250 dollar scarves and that we sew elastic into her stretched out underpants. I said, “Oh, look at that cute baby. … Continue reading →

Deal with it. 1) Holland America is for old people. Out of 1500 passengers, 100 were 20 … Continue reading →

Another day at the Mall: Me: Ooh, look at how cute that skirt is!! Josh leans over Me: What are you doing? Josh: I was throwing up. Me: Why? Josh: I’m trying to participate in the conversation. Continue reading →

So today I tried to be nice and make fudgy bon bons for the people at my work. It’s neat. If you’ve never tried fudgy bon-bons, I feel sorry for you. It’s a hershey’s kiss wrapped in fudge with white chocolate (i.e. the bane of my exsistence). It started out well, except that I threw … Continue reading →
