Heading Home – Labor Day 2017
I lived in Albuquerque for almost 12 years. I went to middle and high school there, and I earned my bachelor’s degree there. I met Kevin, and we married there. For our honeymoon, we camped, hiked, and traveled all around New Mexico. We purposefully planned on spending an equal amount of time in different regions …
9/11
Never forget. It’s been 16 years, and everyone still remembers. Notice how I didn’t say only Americans remember. I’m sure that many people across the globe, allies and enemies of the U.S. alike, haven’t forgotten the events of September 11th, 2001. They have since changed the entire world. No one will forget it for years …

Short Summary – Logan Lucky

You’re an All-Star
I believe it says a lot that a band like Smash Mouth is still relevant in 2017. Granted, they released their last studio album as recently as 2012, but in only 5 years’ time, they’ve become known for something other than their music. Much like Nickelback, Smash Mouth have now become a big joke. They …
Short Summary – GoT S7 E6
Short Summary is an original series in which I write brief reviews of movies, TV shows, video games, books, and more. Spoiler alert, just in case! "Beyond the Wall" … What is even happening on this show anymore?! I say this for both the pros and cons of "Beyond the Wall". After it finished airing, …
Short Summary – GoT S7 E5
Short Summary is an original series in which I write brief reviews of movies, TV shows, video games, books, and more. Spoiler alert, just in case! "Eastwatch" Time and distance don't mean anything anymore on Game of Thrones. I realized this at the beginning of the season and haven't mentioned it until now. But man, people …
Harry Potter
Everyone celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Harry Potter book series over a month ago, and the actual character turned 37 years old over a week ago, so I'm definitely late to both parties. But better late than never, right? And hey, I just realized that I'm actually super early for the 16th anniversary of the …
