I Fed A Troll

Yesterday, I made a mistake.

I fed a troll.

Martin and I had just woken up, and I was casually scrolling through Facebook, while checking the morning’s happenings and any newsworthy events we should know before we started our day, when I came across a meme […]

Morning Sickness has me. But it’s […]
