I like the Cobra Starship song “Hot Mess,” because I relate to it at a visceral level.
I am whatever the opposite is of having one’s shit together. Continue reading
A draft rule has been introduced in Colorado that would force dogs to wear life jackets while at doggie day care and boarding facilities if the dog has access to water that’s deeper than the dog’s shoulders.
