It’s been more than a week since my last post. I don’t even know where to begin summing up what’s happened in my life since my last correspondence. To start, my friend Peter came to visit from Detroit. This was his first time in Raleigh, and so it was my mission to give him the [...]

The past year’s biggest issue for me is sleeping in. Not like the pre-planned intentional kind of sleep in.

I spent a portion of my day having a cup of coffee (on said brown couch) with Tyler from TriangleBlvd, [...]
