Lots of Unspoken Curse Words Today
Let me allow this picture to tell you you everything you need to know about the day I’m having: It is currently 12:30 pm. I’m on my lunch break at home. Usually when my break is over at 1:00, I go back to work. Not today. The yoga pants and slippers mean that I’m not… →

I Don’t Want Any Trouble
