The Pilgrim Congress

I grew up in a city located just outside of Boston.  After high school, I went to college in another major city in Massachusetts.  After college, I got a job in Boston.  Do you know what all of these areas have?  Public transportation!  And sidewalks!  Do you know what that means?  It means, if you [...]

If you would like the answer to the mystery of why I don’t smile, watch the vlog below.  If you would like to read about Jesus and pirates and supermarkets, check out my guest post on Big Sky Girl.  Something for everyone.
Update: So, I just noticed that my guest post isn’t up yet.  I swear [...]

Far be it from me to critique your awesome skills.  I mean you created dinosaurs and Walmart, so you know, Jesus 2, me 0.  But I would like to make a small suggestion.  When you created the world and shit, I think you made a slight miscalculation in the number of hours required to get [...]

Neighbor: Aw, what’s her name?
Me: Coco .  Isn’t she adorable?!  She’s really smart to!  Like I can’t believe how [...]

Hey, guess what?  I am never moving again.  I am going to die in this place.  You see, my system is delicate and cannot handle things like “change,” or stuff that is “new,” or anything that is not “exactly the way it should be.” 
Don’t get me wrong, I was so incredibly excited to move.  I [...]

I sit up at night planning your demise.  I dream of a world without cardboard uhaul boxes.  And then I wake up and you are still here.  Filled with my stuff.  Mocking me.  Well, it ends today.  I am going to tear out what remains of your insides and throw you in a dumpster like [...]
