Be a cupcake in a world full of muffins.
Today would be my Daddy's 69th birthday. This is one of the easier years. Not quite sure why some years are harder than others, but even the anniversary of his death this June wasn't as terrible as other years. I miss him incredibly, and think about him almost every day. My little brother is the [...]
In a few short days, I enter my 30s. It seems insane to me that I'm about to embark on my fourth decade, and I'm not sure whether I still feel like a spring chicken or I've matured into a summer chicken. Either way, I'm getting older and as of Tuesday this cat is 30. [...]
There are a few things I have no patience for; racism, homophobia, bullying and inconsiderate jerks. I'm going to do a series on my own personal views of modern etiquette for things that inconsiderate dinks do. The first instalment will be geared towards driving.

There is nothing more daunting than applying for work. Honestly I can think of a million things I would rather do that leave me with the same feelings of inadequacy and defeat than sending out my resume in hopes that someone will want to pronounce my name, give me a call and more importantly give [...]
If ya don't got nothin nice to say, don't say nothin at all. I'm one of those annoying types who's conditioned myself into the "get the world before it gets you" mentality.
