I am a debacle of an individual.

Real person or not, I can confidently say that I will always be a bit of a disaster on legs. My propensity for accidental shenanigans could be an art form. One week in, I have yet to reach “falling in a gutter” levels of epic-story-time but (a) that took two weeks -and- (b) this is […]

Oh shit, I’m really in Paris.

I have not forgotten the promised vlog. I attempted to record it three times, but I am so jetlagged and haggard looking it is ridiculous. Mostly it’s a lot of me staring at the camera saying, “Uhhhhh.” Suffice it to say that a lot has happened in the last couple weeks. Waiting to depart my […]

Once I made a vlog. Oh and I’m going to Paris.

Clarification: I don’t know what that weird humming noise is. It’s a glitch with my webcam. There’s probably a ghost/demon living in my netbook. It’s whatever.

That one time when I remembered I had a blog.

I spent my winter break in the constant motion to which I am most accustomed. Perhaps even more familiar though less inherently comfortable, I traveled by planes, trains, and automobiles with my family. Actually, that’s a lie. We didn’t take the train. We’re American. Nobody takes the train here. We did our usual Sweeney tornado […]
