Meh-hee-ko
So, I’ve just returned from what was apparently my second trip to Mexico ever — I say apparently because according to my dad, I went to Mexico when I was two, and returned “all sunburned and constipated.” Oh, dads — always there to remind you that you were once as helpless as a sea cucumber [...]

Adulthood?
Ok, I haven’t posted in a million years, and I’ll tell you why, in a roundabout way.
