Put on the red light!
Right under those red lights sat the most depressing prostitutes I've ever seen. Since it was about 4 in the afternoon, I can't imagine that varsity team was playing. I'm sure if you look closely enough you could see the bullet wounds and c-section scars. This, my friends, is the day shift in Amste…
So Pat Robertson, what caused this?
Seriously, if I hear another word about this chundering volcano in Iceland, I will officially lose my shit. It would have been nice to sip sangria on a beach in Barcelona but those plans have been shattered a few thousand times over. However, my vacation week is still looming and with nowhere to go,…
Jamsterdam!
Isn't it funny how you think you're going to Tokyo and you actually end up in the most confusing airport in Western Europe!? The best laid plans, y'all.

The most visited department store in the city (just in front of Printemps I believe) just a couple weeks before Christmas is probably the worst idea ever. I…

jet lag or raw salmon?
I would have had a full day in Paris if not for the horrible nausea I had from the moment I got off the plane. I don't know if it was because I didn't sleep on the plane at all (I did, however, watch one of the best movies I've seen in a long time, The Fall with Lee Pace) or the fact that I had a qu…
