No matter how many times I have said that I would leave the house earlier in order to avoid morning traffic, I seem to end up leaving at the last minute. Snoozing that extra ten minutes, often costs me a half hour, thus stuck in rush hour. Does it sound familiar to you, or are...

Both Hands
A few weeks ago, I had a dream. I dream a lot and forget most dreams within a day or two, but sometimes I have dreams that stick around, and these dreams seem a little different. Dreams like this one is strange in a way that I cannot explain, and I don’t mean strange in...
