Thoughts, experiences and adventures from a resident of DelSo aka Delaware Avenue South in Albany, N.Y.
You know I don’t do Tik-Tok, right? I certainly understand its appeal, but, in all honesty, I find it to be the crack of social media. All that endless scrolling… I don’t want to spend my hours doing that, not at this point in my one precious life. Because of my Tik-Tok avoidance, I often … Continue reading Escape to NYC
Let me just start with this undeniable fact: Colin Farrell is hot. I’m talking an absolute smoke show of a man. Beyond the admiration I hold for Farrell’s physical appearance, though, lies something even deeper - he’s a hell of an actor.

First up … Continue reading Take me to the river(towns!)
