I wish I could say that my time away from this blog has been oh so exciting and therefore, I have a lot to tell. I wish I could say that. It hasn’t been uneventful, by any means. School has been a lot more involved. For the first time, I’m teaching three different literature classes … Continue reading
I put this off a bit at the beginning of this month, mostly due to a wedding I was in (#8, by the way, if you’re keeping track of my bridesmaid adventures).
