Tuesday afternoon. Still sitting here processing last night. Wow, what was that? Okay, this guy apparently cares about his “privacy,” and I’m here to tell you he just fucked up big time. No. You don’t get that with me unless you earn it. You can’t be in a bar paying...Read More

Friday morning. At the coffee stand. Here with my laptop today, which is a first. I haven't touched my laptop in... I don't even know how long. Usually I just jot down whatever is in my head on my iPad. When I show up with my laptop, it means I'm...Read More
