Erg. Is there anything worse than waking up 10 stupid minutes before your alarm goes off? No... no, I didn't think there was. So, as I'm coming out of the grocery store the other day, I notice a little old lady right behind me. I figure she's leaving too, so I hold...

The Inspirational Death of a Leaf
I'm busy and tired today (and tired of being busy. Ba-dum-bum!), so instead of exerting any kind of creative effort, I'll just regurgitate a few morsels of unlikely interest for you. You may remember a few months ago when I offered a horrific excerpt one of my...
