Rounding the Corner
I’ll be so happy when this election is over because it’s all my Dates can talk about. There’s such divisiveness out there and when politics comes up on a date I feel like unless there’s 100% agreement the date is over. How do you dodge politics? The election may be almost over, but politics will still exist on November 4th and for all the days following… until the end of time.

Break-up, not Broken

He’s got a great life going and I’m proud he wants me to be a part of it.
