What is it with people that just dump out their drinks on the road while they are stopped at a light or sitting in a parking lot? Are they not good enough to keep that in their car and just get rid of it at home, or the gas station? Then I have to drive [...]

I got drunk for the first time in my life last night. It was also the first time I tried shots. The party seemed to be an overall success. All of the people showed up except for Kenneth. People didn’t really eat a lot of food. I was hoping for potato salad, but Lowell never [...]
