I'm sitting here watching the GOP convention, really excited about this ticket for the first time in a while. Teenage pregnancy or not.

I feel like I should be walking around with a sign on my forehead: "I'm not sticking around here very long...just passing through."

My house is an inferno right now, I'd like to go drive somewhere with the windows down but can't afford the gas.

Finding this coffee shop was probably the best thing I've done this summer.
