  • Summer 2023 Movies0

    Theater or Stream? I am not a huge fan of movie theaters. They are cold, the seats usually aren’t very comfy, and the snacks are expensive. I did go to a theater in State College once that had recliners that I think should become the standard for all theaters. That being said, there are some

    City Parks, Recreation, and Celebration0

    Happy 247th Independence Day, America! Please fasten your seatbelts as summer is about to fly by, the night sky illuminated by the fireworks of the 4th of July.

    If you know me, you know that the 4th of July is my most favoritest holiday! Low pressure, lots of fun, and of course, FIREWORKS! It’s just a great time to spend time with friends or family and relax, have fun, and blow stuff up — safely, of course! Since the Fourth is looming, you

I spent over $100 at the grocery store this week without even buying any ground beef, chicken, or other ‘high

    Much like my Mother’s Day list, my Father’s Day list changes and flow and gets a few edits along the way, but I think it’s a pretty good list. So much like Dads usually appreciate, let’s not get fussy and get on with it… First and foremost, Happy Father’s Day to Steve. You are an

  • The Ceiling Can’t Hold Us0

  • Summer Bucket List0

    I am notorious for the Uncompleted Bucket List. It’s a terrible habit. I have all these big ideas and plans, and then — poof! — my timeline has passed, and I’m lucky if I have completed one or two items. That being said, does that keep me from making said lists and still being content
