I picked up my birth control today! It feel so surreal that this is how the process starts.  I talked to the doctor's office yesterday to go over the process. My first concern was that I didn't want to travel with injectible medication to either DC or Vegas and I let them know that. We've… Continue reading Here we go!

So, most of the people who read this are my family which means that they do not share the same musical tastes as myself. That being said, my musical taste is eclectic and borderline "decent" at best (terrible at worst).  I do try to stay abreast of the top 10 albums in the country, just… Continue reading Popular things…and how they become popular.
