  • Define Tijuana – Rebound Gets Promoted – Last Celebrity: Juliette Lewis

    I skipped Sunday. I was feeling sick. Way too hungover. My Saturday was not what I expected and I kind of went overboard. TJ adventure solo to my limits. It was a bad idea. All of Sunday I laid on the couch nursing my headache and watching NFL. And hey. My fantasy team didn’t do…

  • Got a Present: New Bed – And A New NEW Roommate – Kool 52 and Tacon Veggie Reviewed – Holiday Party at TVRN Bowl Today!

    Skipping the blog for a day always seems problematic. Like I lose the flow. Even for just one single day. I treated yesterday like the weekend. I shouldn’t have. But I still did.
