Madam President
This is about as close as I’ll ever come to talking politics, which is not very. There wasn’t anything surprising to me about Obama’s Supreme Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Latina judges have been a daytime […]
A Shoe-In
I don’t care if Worishofer is totally summer 2007, I love orthopedic sandals, passé hipster trends be damned. My black #562s have been looking a little beat up so I had my eye on a […]
Every (City of) Rose(s) Has its Thorn
