Today is the last episode of Oprah. I haven’t ever known television without Oprah (I am 28). I can’t believe her show won’t be on to indulge in anymore on my days off. In honor of the last episode, I thought I would share about the time my friend Marissa and I went to The [...]

I’ve Never

by jessicaturner on May 13, 2011

I was inspired by this post to write a list of things I’ve never… I’ve never skydived. I’ve never been to any other continent. I’ve never cheated on someone. I’ve never been drunk. I’ve never gone skiing. I’ve never stayed up for 24 hours (I even dozed while I was in labor for 30+ hours) [...]
