I have always been a sucker for massages. Even as teenagers, my sister and I would take turns giving each other a back massage. If I remember correctly, she did it pretty well while I would find ways to excuse myself. Lucky me – I was the older sister!
Anyhow, I did not get [...]

Once again, I am reminded of how competitive J and I are. We love to play video games and there is no doubt about it – he is much better at it than I am. We got Guitar Hero: Aerosmith yesterday for “our” Christmas present and we have not stopped playing the game. [...]

It is never good when you run low on cash – or is it? These past months have been very harrowing – both emotionally and financially. Looking back, we realize that we have gotten ourselves in too deep when it came to expenses. We know that we will eventually be able to [...]
