I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine!

Cheers

Your indignity is splashed on the wall: Go back to those days of yore Your indignity is splashed onthe wall It drips revoltingly so The cold steely knife lies in your mind’s stall It all pools into a piercing bile ball It is now done Your promise was […]
The Rear-View mirror on the Road This past week I have contemplated what it means to be at the crossroads. Traveling through the midwest hundreds upon hundreds of miles can stir the mind and make one contemplative. The mind gets particularly jostled after the fourth time of hearing […]
