The Birth Of The Blonde Bartender
The Birth Of The Blonde Bartender

Have you ever just wanted to punch fear right in the face!?! I tend to put a mask on my fears. The "That's not for me", "You do you" mask. It's a complete and utter cop out that pains me to admit. As a whole I'm a confident person but let's be real, we all have our weaknesses...

It's Those Family Traditions...
