Alex and I don’t fight alot- only if we’re both hungry or we’re playing board games. If we’re hungry and playing board games, then someone’s going to get their eyebrows scratched off. Sometimes we start off “play arguing” and then it escalates into a situation. EXAMPLE: My car is my sanctuary. My dirty teenage girl … Continue reading

I’m in love. I’m in love. And I don’t care who knows it.

Mud ‘tween my fingers and grass in my teeth
I had a new life experience this week- a mud run. Abilene style, of course, which means that the touted “obstacles” were wooden balance beams, a gigantic air slide, hurdles taken from a high school, and dragging a tire across the ground. But I would expect nothing less, because those things are on the Top … Continue reading
