I love it when my friends randomly remind me why I love them. I’ve been known to dog sit within my circle of friends and not too long ago I was thanked for watching a pooch that is somewhat notorious on my social media feeds (Yes, it was #dogballs!). Dog Balls’s […]

GABF 2014: The Alpha (aka Thursday)
The Great American Beer Festival. GABF. Beer Fest. For some, it’s a beer-drinking crowning achievement to check off the bucket list. For others, it’s an annual party. An excuse to get hammered or dress up in costume and get hammered. Admittedly, I usually fall into the latter of the groups. […]
