I guess I can be considered Hoi Polloi (noun: the common people; the masses (often preceded by the )). Can you find me on Tarasloane.com? I met Tara back at the end of October. She was on a trip to find herself and to transition between lives. She and Jeramie were good friends back in high school and they decided to catch up in Ukraine. We had a good time together, despite Tara being a Gopher.
I want to go to India because that’s where people go to find themselves.

As seems it is the growing trend this year, we played dodge ball. I was nervous playing because I haven’t done any physical activity on my knee since I saw the doctor a month ago and I was afraid to find out … Continue reading
I have yearly rituals. Every Valentine’s Day, I drink and watch some chick flick (usually Definitely Maybe) because the end of whatever movie makes me feel good and give me hope. On May 4th, I wear my Admiral Ackbar “It’s a Trap!” t-shirt or my “Chewy” t-shirt. On November the 5th, I remember the 5th of November and I salute the discovery of time travel.
