I’ve almost told him countless times, but have held back. I’ve been wanting to find a way, a poetic way, to say “I love you.” And now that I have, now that the words are out there- floating somewhere between us, it’s not anything like how I thought it would be. Somehow, I can hardly believe, [...]

I’m still uncertain how this whole Twitter thing works, but I thought it was about time I got with the program. If only for the coupons and promo codes, right? Or to learn about untimely deaths like Brittany Murphy’s. About that, can I just say what the hell?
Yeah, so now I’m twittering (@nicnarrates). Which, to [...]
