Musings

So we’re four days into the new year. I can’t say these four days have been the best, generally speaking I’m not a fan of New Year’s Eve/Day. But thanks to my BGF and hooker seester this year started off pretty good. I’m pretty optimistic about what 2016 will have to offer.

But I’ve got less than six months before this mofo goes down, so I better start getting ready. I don’t…
