I just received the most hateful email I think I have ever seen, and it wasn’t even intended to be against me. It was from a friend, about the whole “Happy Holidays” thing. She wanted to start a FB campaign about it, to take back the holiday from all those “dirty non-Christians who don’t even […]
I am such a bad blogger. I used to make it a part of my daily routine, but I have definitely fallen away from that for a whole bunch of reasons. I guess part of it was just that I was so frustrated with my life that it felt like I was writing the same […]
9-11. It’s a day none of us will ever forget. I remember it as if it were yesterday. I was still a soldier then and I had just walked in to Group S-1 when the news of the first tower came on. At first, everyone still thought it was just a tragic accident. I was […]
