About Me

Springfield, Missouri, United States
I’m in my mid-30s and still trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. Most of my interests do not exactly come with a reasonable expectation of financial success, things such as artwork and fiction writing.

We do have two dogs, two chinchillas, a gerbil, and three chickens. Only the chickens seem to be pulling their weight vis-à-vis contributions to the household other than excrement.

According to his scale I’ve lost 7 pounds. I’m a lot more accountable for what I put in my mouth if I’m weighing myself. ‘Course then after I went to the doctor’s office we went out to eat at Red Robin, so…”

I ask you, ladies and gentlemen; are the above statements:

A. Dumb things to say
B. The Dumbest thing to say

Pass your tests to the front whenever you’re finished.
