I’ve always looked at Valentine’s Day as one of those Hallmark holidays that’s focused more on consumerism than anything else. Maybe it’s my natural cynicism, maybe it’s because I’m jaded about relationships, maybe it’s because I’m rarely part of a relationship when this day rolls around, but I’ve […]
Hey y’all! It’s my first time in participating in WWW Wednesday, and I’m pretty excited to jump in on this one! It’s a weekly meme hosted by Sam @ Taking On a World of Words, and all you have to do is answer the 3 Ws: What are […]
