Smoothie Sharing

June 24, 2010

All this talk of Chloe and her wedding have me reminiscing fondly about the days when we shared our very first apartment together after college. This was in and of itself a notable fact: as any friend of mine will tell you, I’m pretty bad at sharing personal space. I had a single all four [...]
