New Posts Every Monday and Friday!
The past couple of weeks have been an odd combination of relaxing and wild - hence the total lack of blog posts last week. But it has also been a much-needed breather. At the end of last month, my best friend and I drove down to Williamsburg, Virginia to visit another friend who moved there... Continue Reading →
I'm sure y'all have seen the meme that has come to be known across the internet as "Why not both?"
