Can we talk about something? So you know how I’ve gotten sucked into fb (yes, I just admitted that again. I also acronymed it. What’s more, “acronymed” isn’t even a word so I’m two for two), well I’ve been witnessing the most….distressing?…trend among some friends of friends (i.e. people I know from high school but [...]

(And besides, giving up dating/ the sex for Lent would have been a cake walk these days. As well as buying shoes. I’ve even lost my [...]
