First world car problems in your twenties
I’ll admit it, I didn’t know how good I had it. I was car spoiled. I don’t mean I had a fancy car. It wasn’t even a new car. And my parents endlessly reminded me that they owned the car and that letting me drive it was a favor. As if I was going to […]

About life and driving, and which one needs better maps

Having your parents over when you’re in your twenties
I was running at the park when it happened. Wanting to change up the scenery, I headed to the park for a long run as punishment for the cookie and red, velvet cake I had this week. I ended up going around the whole park because I can’t read signs and am easily distracted by […]

Why I always talk to strangers even though my parents taught me not to
He was sitting in a red, fold out chair. The kind you see parents take to school fields so they can sit and watch their kids play sports. It looked just like the one I have in my room. An American flag was draped down the wall behind him. It was as long as the […]
