Surely I'll start the school year with more presence of mind than I had when the last one ended. Right? You know that period when school feels new and exciting, and you remember everything you're supposed to remember (permission … [Read more...]

But I do tend to get irritated when a huge and crazy situation happens simply because someone won't admit the truth. Doesn't the truth set you free? If he/she/it would just be honest, … [Read more...]
