July 08, 2013
By reading my blog, you notice that a lot of interesting stuff happens to me. I suppose these kinds of things are just part of life, but I’m surprised when others make it a top priority to intervene in the lives of others.

July 03, 2013
A group that I belong to decided to have a potluck dinner at the next event, and everyone agreed to bring something to eat or drink.
