I just got done reading an interview with Felicia Day over on Entertainment Weekly, where I saw the “Pop Culture” personality test again.

(The contest was won more than once by a drag queen named [...]

I don’t want to write this blog, to be perfectly honest. I’ve been putting it off. God knows that I’ve got plenty on my plate to keep me busy, from work-work to housework to my friends and family here in Wisconsin. Many excuses to keep me from having to put all things things churning around [...]
