The LA Galaxy are the 2011 MLS Champs and there weren’t any soccer riots last night. I hate it when people don’t live up to their stereotypes.
Happy Birthday To Me And Martin Scorsese.

My sister, cousin and I were discussing Thanksgiving (menu, decor, etc) and it slowly morphed into girl talk.
I hate girl talk; I don’t care about your sex/social life and I don’t want to talk about it with my sister and cousin.
