Brains for Breakfast

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

A typical morning would be this: Wake up to feed the baby. Go back to sleep. Wake up to pesky alarm. Hit snooze. Hit snooze. Hit snooze. Wake up in a panic. Take a quick shower. Feed the baby. Zoom to work. Have unhealthy breakfast from fastfood. It’s tiring. Yeah sure I get an extra [...]

Cujo 22 of 52: Bye, Sophie!

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009
