There you are, stretching luxuriously in your comfy bed. The sun is shining. The birds are chirping. You take a deep breath, smile slightly, and sit up. Some coffee would be great right now!

That Time I Fought Crime
It had been the longest, most frustrating night at work. My eighth day in a row consisted of being neck deep in the weeds and also a ten percent tip average. As they say in Mexico, no bueno. I got home around eleven, ate my Vegan Cobb Salad (better than it sounds) and then switched…

In The Mood
You know that warm, tingly feeling? That glow that seems to settle over the room and make everything magical and lovely? You know what I’m talking about. The Christmas Spirit. Sometimes you got it, sometime you don’t. I’m not there yet. I think once you become an “adult” you lose some of the magic. There’s…
