I have been walking around as if I were a zombie. Well, at least how popular culture depicts zombies. I am not too sure whether actual zombies are as mindlessly oriented as in the Walking Dead, but that is how I feel. I used to say I had […]
After a rather trying day with 101 tasks, I got the chance to sit on the couch. Well, actually I stretched across the couch and tried to veg out. I switched on the television and scrolled down my dvr list. I started watching one show in particular and […]
