Just about ready to get these pound cakes started.

The key is not to get high on my supply, so I'm going to end up baking three - two to take to family dinner and one for myself here at my place.

I have too many marathons to choose from before football starts.

There's MotorWeek on YouTube, a Bugs and Daffy one on MeTV...decisions, decisions...

Went to see Beyonce (Renaissance tour) and Stevie by myself.

Enjoyed each thoroughly.
Have yall ever gone to a concert by yourself? How was it?

I did an hour long show for work, got up too fast and realized that running for the first time in two months prior to that means your body is going to yell at you.

Simon said the weather was decent enough for a run. Not bad after two months away.

Happy 50th Anniversary to The O'Jays "Family Reunion" album!

A trip to New Orleans.

I would say peace, but being able to pay rent and live alone kinda rebuffs that argument.

Reading, writing, photography, videography, car shows, concerts, etc.

"Watch out, Shaggy! Watch out, Scooby-Doo! Hey nah ni nani no...look out Freddy, look out Velma, too!"

...yep, I can hear it.
Meghan Trainor's music always sounds like it belongs playing in the background of A Pup Named Scooby Doo's chase scenes. Thanks, I hate it!
