I've sort of been sitting on this one for a while. Actually, it's been years since I decided that it would make for a good blog post. I had initially planned to compile a list of the top ten things to say if you wanted to be punched in the face. I haven't been successful … Continue reading Things to Say When You Want to Get Punched in the Face

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Title: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Author: J.K. Rowling Published: 2000 Wow. I had not even picked up this book to begin reading it since it was first published 15 years ago.

No Shave November

I realize that title will be a little misleading. I did not participate in any sort of "No Shave November" event. I also did not participate in "Movember" to raise awareness for anything.

Day Thirty

A Dream for the Future This seems really similar to yesterday's post. As I mentioned before, I'm not really one to plan for the future. I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
