You remember about a month back when I was spazzing about turning twenty five? Well, this story took place three days before my birthday, and I still haven’t fully forgiven Regions Bank. Also, for this story to make sense, you [...]

I was almost arrested this morning.
I’m a good girl. I got to church. I eat vegetables. I spend time with my family.
But I was almost arrested this morning.
