Worst Friend of the Year (insofar)
The other day, a neighbor, whom I assist with house chores, called about some missing diamonds. She subtly implied the possibility that I had been in her house and taken them.

These photos show the year-old cheeseburger—pretty much the same, except for the shrunken patty and the stale bun. Oh, not to mention, there...

– Don’t think too much or you’ll create a problem that wasn’t even there in the first place. Evaluate situations and take decisive action. You cannot change what you refuse to confront. Making progress involves risk. Period! You can’t make it to second base with your foot on first.

So I'm sick in bed with a stomach bug. I slept...
I thought it was 10am. ”Why’s the sun not up?” I asked my little sister. I fed the dogs who are probably very confused.

Ugh. Any remedies for a stomach bug?

I'm done interviewing people about their lives.
