The Remedy is the Experience; the Comedy is that it’s Serious

No matter how old you get, no matter what occasion, there are always lessons to be learned from your family. Below, the Top 10 tips from the past 4th of July. Enjoy!

1. At 13, texting honeys whilst skateboarding is bad news. When you get a little older, it’s texting and driving. Sexting is bad news at any age.

Since the weather’s been pretty much phenomenal in the past few weeks, I was determined to make it to the roof patio for lunch some time soon, and yesterday it finally happened. Granted, it’s windy up there, and my Baked Lays ended up all over the place, but it’s small price to pay for some sun and a view. You’re jealous, I can tell.
