Baltimore’s Playground

Baltimore’s Playground

Last year, I attended the last meet up of Baltimore's Playground for the season. I had a total blast, but I had no idea how huge this event usually is. Now that the weather has warmed, Jason has started his fantastically fun monthly meet ups again, and I couldn't be...

To My Friends: Living Eulogies

To My Friends: Living Eulogies

After posting my funeral plans last week, I started thinking about eulogies. Generally, eulogies are celebratory speeches about a person who has recently died. Wouldn't you much rather be able to hear what your friends have to say about you, though? There is no reason...

Someone was feeling stressed, so I made him a playlist to listen to. In honor of swag not stress, all the bands begin with the letter "S". It's a mixture of pop punk, folk, emo, and 90's. I hope you enjoy! Have a great weekend! listen

Sidewalk Chalk RAOK

Sidewalk Chalk RAOK

Sidewalk chalk is such a joyous thing. I keep a box of it in the trunk of my car, in case of emergencies. You can write on a ton of different surfaces, and it's better than spray paint for two reasons: 1) If you're less artistically inclined, like myself, you can be...
