Summertime
Much like Texas, the British are renowned for saying that if you don’t like the weather, then wait five minutes. It’s oddly comforting to find such things such as that which help make the UK as much home as Texas. … Continue reading →

Food
I don’t mention food much, because normally? I don’t care about it. I’m not a foodie (though if you want an interesting one, I recommend Tasha over at Voracious), and am so meh about the whole concept of eating that … Continue reading →
Curiosity
I’m going to keep it short today, ’cause I realize that I tend to go on at length. Apparently, the ideal length for a blog post is 350-450 words, and I’m usually aiming for 500 – whups! So here’s the … Continue reading →
