We’ve gotten so good at throwing around extremes. We love everything and everyone, we’re BFFs with any and everyone. Not getting the latest iPhone on its release day makes it the worst day ever. Really? There are people who want to say that calling a woman a slut is war on women. Maybe they’re alsoContinue reading “Calling a woman a slut is NOT a war on women”

Even addicts have their limits (I’m talking to you, Girl Scouts)
For some reason every year it catches me off guard. You would think, with me being an addict, that I would have exact dates down.
