That’s the weird thing about teaching. Even as an adult, I still get to experience all those familiar “back to school” […]

Tonight, as I dragged my weary eyes across the television screen (that’s a fun visual), I saw familiar cover art featuring Simon Pegg. Being a fan of the actor, I was aware of this movie–A Fantastic Fear of Everything–at a time, but had forgotten about it. Until now. I started the movie, which would take me

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. I hate not updating this page more often, but I do have a good reason for it: money. I’m broke, and unfortunately, the more time I spend writing posts for this site, making videos for YouTube, writing horror stories, and basically doing all the things I really
