A deeper dive into the drinking stuff. About a year ago I decided to start taking my health more seriously. So I stopped drinking regularly, I started in on the yard for exercise, and I began changing my diet. As of today I am somewhere on the scale that I never thought I'd be.

Hard Things.
The last few years have been a journey. The most important thing I've learned is doing the Hard Things. I don't like doing Hard Things. I do them anyway.

Things I like knowing.
I like knowing that, from the Prince’s mouth, his mum used to “belch like a high schooler” and she’d win the belching contests. I spent years trying to beat Butch at burp competitions, so I empathize with Haz.

Perspective.
I had to take my son to high school orientation. He had been pretty negative about moving to high school, and I don't blame him one bit. The high school consists of several buildings, a cafeteria that rivals the food court at the mall, and twenty-five hundred students. 2500. Gurl, I graduated with 147 people--the … Continue reading Perspective.
