&#034I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.&#034 -Oscar Wilde

All righty then, here&#039s what&#039s up and why I will be out of commission for the weekend. I&#039m going to Delaware so that me and my friend Lushbaugh can go deep-sea fishing for blue-fin tuna. Continue reading →

&#034Three things are weakening: fear, sin, and travel.&#034 -Talmud

          O&#039s lips were suddenly on mine, pulling my mouth magnetically to his. I surprised myself because not only did I not pull back at his sudden move, I leaned in wanting more. Continue reading →
