A Boy and His Chicken
I am inclined to say that I have writer’s block. But I don’t. I have too many things to write and they’re getting all jammed up inside my head, so many things and I don’t know what to put into this blog and what to keep to myself… so we’ll start with an update andContinue reading “A Boy and His Chicken”

It’s a one sock kinda world.
Why fit in when you were born to stand out? -Dr. Seuss For the longest time, this dude has had one sock on and one sock off… I asked him about 7 years ago, “Hey, dude, why you always wearing just one sock around the house?” He answered brightly, “Try it!” I did not tryContinue reading “It’s a one sock kinda world.”
