Well, this is a pretty horrific way to begin a Monday morning. As I was checking out the news today, I saw this story about a 23-year-old Massachusetts man named Kerby Revelus who stabbed his two sisters and tried to kill a third before being gunned down by police. This happened on Saturday, but [...]
Unlike a lot of women, I don’t have a huge collection of shoes. I have a pair of nice flats for work, a pair of cross-trainers for times when I need to do a lot of walking (going to the mall, the park, a museum, etc.), and a pair of black casuals for wearing [...]
