Golden age: (n.) A period of great peace, prosperity, and happiness. And I'm just a 20-something trying to figure it out.
Turns out I’m not as good at keeping promises to myself as I thought I would be. I did it again. You know what I’m talking about; The Thing. Okay, but before you shake your head at me or roll your eyes (ugh, honestly I would do that if I were you, too), let me [...]
