detroit…chicago…i’m pretty much a world-traveller

So, through a weird twist of events, I’m attending BlogHer in July and I figure since I’m going to a blogging conference, I should probably do some of that there blogging that I’ve heard so much about. (Aside: I’m obviously going through some pretty serious writer’s block and I’m trying not to freak out about [...]

i wrote angry couplets about your mom

Dudes! Double-yoo-tee-eff is up with still not being able to write here on the regular?
