So I'm sitting at my parents' house on my final day of my week-long vacation home... I've had a great time, and I needed this trip so very much. I arrived last Sunday morning around 2 am and dove into bed... I had just driven my usual 8.5 hours but half of that was riddled... Continue Reading →
2.27.19 Miami (Journal)
So, it's nearing March. I can't believe it. They say time goes by faster the older you get. I now know what that means!

5.31.17 The First Time.
Hello there. Brian here. AKA ballistik coffee boy on LiveJournal for over 20 years. UNTIL... one day, I logged on, and it had suddenly been sold to the Russians. Yeah. NO kidding.
