In the years I was too awkward to actually date, I thought it’d be awesome to go on a date where we each had separate fake identities that we played along with. Made up fake names, fake stories…essentially Wedding Crashers, but not necessarily soley at Weddings… it could be done at any function…
SO, we were talking tonight and the subject actually came up somehow - AAAAND...

The messiness that is my bedroom.
Cleaning has quickly devolved into Tumblr-ing.

There is no further substance to this post.

I should maybe have...
