Christmas Gifts I Won’t Buy My Nephews (2015 edition)

Posted on November 26, 2015 by mjennings • 10 Comments

It’s that time of the year. The time of the year when school is very nearly out, and it’s like all the kids are jacked on sugar cookie-crank. My nephews — I cannot believe I now have FOUR of them.

 If I were to come into possession of a single vial of truth serum, and as long as I could garner his consent in the matter (which would be pointless, I think, but otherwise fairly ethical), I would have my father take it. I’ve read quite a number of entries on this prompt today, and … Continue reading →

Rich Girls Behaving Badly

It’s said that you can’t change a person who doesn’t want to change. I call bullshit. And it is sometimes…messy. I did a study abroad in London during my junior year as an undergrad. Funny because it really wasn’t a study “abroad” for me as I’d been attending school in Georgia, and my family was … Continue reading →
