They’ll Make Me Go To Rehab!
And not only because my intentions to eat healthier in 2012 already seem to have morphed themselves into something quite he opposite. I’ve failed 5 years in a row now! But it’s not my fault.

Slices of Life
The photography and expressions sections of my site have stayed woefully quiet these past few weeks. Mainly because I don’t trust my ankle enough to take my camera outside with me, and well, you just don’t get a whole lot of excitement when you’re stuck at home.
