You know, it isn’t often I have a year like 2010. It was a year in which I truly took responsibility for myself. Sure, my parents bailed me out a couple times, I’m not saying I didn’t need help, but I clothed and fed myself, paid my bills, found work, and braved a new city …read more!

So, I’m a week behind with all my blogging duties. I apologize. It’s been a long crazy ride. And let me tell you why. On my personal blog, I’m doing a sort of ‘count down’ to Deathly Hallows, by posting every other week, about each movie that has come out so far. Last Monday I …read more!
