I used to make fun of Becky for clipping coupons. Now I had to come to her for help, so I guess Becky got the last laugh after all. This all started when we were roommates, right after college. I was living the high life, going out every night, partying, getting wild after my long […]

Once or twice a month the old crew rounds up for a night on the town. In total there are ten of us, who all went to the same college at the same time. Of course we need to have a couple of us who stay sober throughout the night. These Designated Drivers are the […]

Technically what I did was against the law. If I was just a common drug dealer, I could see how people might look down on me for doing it, but I regret nothing! This was in the middle of the pandemic a few years ago, and everyone was scared by the quarantine. I had closed […]

As a bit of background, I was raised in a very poor neighborhood by a single mom who never had an extra dime to spare. I am not complaining, Mom was a great woman and always took care of me. I only mention this so you know my background, and why I am such a […]

Gary and I had one heck of a weekend. This was the first time we had gotten to hang out together in over three years! I flew up to see him for a quick three-day vacation. Gary has an incredible condo right on the beach. I will admit that I didn’t spend as much time […]
