Going Anti-Anti-Valentine This Year

Every year around this time of year, I start getting gobs of traffic to my Anti-Valentine series of posts, in fact the kind of ridiculous traffic I only wish I could get every day. Because if I did, I could quit my job right now and book out of town faster than the Blues Brothers….

He’s a real Off-Season Man, Living in His Off-Season Land…

Making all my off-season plans, for noooobody… I have to love the look on people’s faces when I talk about taking a vacation in the middle of February.

Thankfully, Hurricane Earl will break the heat wave and put this fricking summer out of its misery once…

Well I’m going to die a virgin tomorrow

Holy… and because my job is considered “essential” I have to go out in this mess too. Awesome. Not that I’m complaining mind…

Driving into a storm for funsies, cuz that’s just how I roll, babe.

So hey, I finally took the plunge and made a reservation for Boston, just in time to see a forecast for a storm coming to New England Tuesday night, a forecast that was confirmed juuuuuust late enough to ensure I couldn’t cancel my reservation in time. Yaaay! But whatever, I was born during violent weather,…
