Something to Someone: The Road to 5000 Followers

1000 Followers, 22 Pizzas, 2 Christmas Songs, 1 Captain
The other day I woke up with the song: “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” penetrating my brain. My initial thought was, “Yeah, I guess it is starting to look a lot like Christmas. Wooooo Santa!” By the … Continue reading
I’m So Leet
You like me. You really, really, really, really, really, (add 1332 more “really’s”) like me. I got a weird notification today from WordPress. It was a trophy for reaching 1337 likes on my blog. I was a bit confused. It … Continue reading
