  • About

    Our vision for this blog is pretty simple: we’re going to talk about our lives; what makes us happy, sad, excited, furious, and plain silly. We will share our lives with you, whenever we can, in the hopes that we can a.) let you, the reader, know about what happens to us, and b.) perhaps find some insight in our experience that makes sense to you as well, and c.) make you laugh, cry, steam of anger of what you are reading. Simply invoke any kind of feeling and thought. So, if you read one of our posts and want to chime in with a comment, please do. Oh, but keep in mind: we are our own individuals with our own values and opinions and we will speak our minds regarding issues that we feel strongly about. Sorry, but sometimes strong emotions call for strong words.
