Stranded in Suburbia

I'm in a bit of an odd predicament. In my 22nd birthday blog post, I based the whole thing on the fact that there isn't a lot of external fanfare surrounding 22 compared to 21. But there is one specific thing that happened when I turned 22, which I sort of alluded to yesterday. I …

A symmetrical birthday

Another year, another trip around the sun. Turning 22 doesn't offer nearly as many significant things to talk about as the 'milestone' 21, where drinking and properly oriented drivers' licenses were officially on the table. I won't be starting this post off with a deep, important-sounding remark on the different milestones one hits in life. …

Happy birthday, blog

As I've just been made aware, February 6, 2016 was the day I first created this blog. I'm a little late to the party considering it's about 11:00 p.m. or so when I'm writing this... But it's been a bit of a long day, so forgive me. To be completely honest, I never expected that …
