Welcome to my blog.
I document my stupid
adventures. Have Fun!
We in the United States measure success in financial terms. I should know, I’m an accountant. It isn’t good enough to report what happened during the year in order to calculate your taxes or track your standings.

Odd thing is, it looks like the ‘burbs are quickly becoming the ‘urbs.
