Manic Monday: Week 7
I can’t complain too much about this weekend, even if Sunday was…well, we’ll get to that. Friday night saw my Astros advance to their third World Series in five years. And before you mention buzzers or cheating just know that I fully embrace the villain role with my team and happily decorated my own personal […]
Manic Monday: Week 6

To stay sane, I need background noise. Music is always a good choice but […]
