Everyday we have choices to make. Pasta or a burger? Netflix or HBOMAX? Listen to the haters or tune them out. The pink or blue eye shadow. Pasta, HBO, tune out the haters, and blue eye shadow are my choices, by the way. Every step of the way, […]
I have not written about my pet peeves or a particular pet peeve in a while. I’ve vacilitated between being stuck in a mud rut and being aspirational. Sometimes, both simultaneously. Today, I want to be peeved. One of my biggest pet peeves ever is the ridiculous reesponse […]
