I overheard my 5 year old discussing Skittles the other day… I really have no idea what’s appropriate anymore… I feel like there is a lot of potential for Candy Crush related puns here, but I’ve never played, so imma let that illustration (that I already regret making) do all of the work. What […]
My Creepy Little Artist

It was dramatic for me at the time. My diary is hilariously embarrassing…or embarrassingly hilarious, I’m not sure which one. […]
