As a sworn procrastinator, I felt it was my solemn duty to wait until the very end of the month to get my car inspected. In the state where I live, one must have their car inspected annually in order for that vehicle to be street legal.

Avoid the Noid
I'm not sure if I've mentioned here that I'm a pretty big fan of The Goldbergs.

Maybe it's because I'm currently on Whole30 and life is basically miserable. But I've been thinking about pizza a lot lately. Because I can't have it. I miss it. I've said that already.

10 Things I Want for My Birthday
