So it’s that time again. Time to make some resolutions that we all know we’re not going to keep, yet we do it anyway. Kind of like how we say, "No, I really don’t want another Vodka and Tonic, thanks," and then vaguely remember saying it as we’re walking home singing "I Love the Nightlife" […]

Thought you’d all appreciate how I spent my Tuesday.
