I know I’m not the only one. Watching the Jesse & the Rippers reunion on Jimmy Fallon was not only ah-mazing, but this appearance was something I’ve anticipated for a long time. 🙂 Come on! Who didn’t adore Uncle Jesse with that grunged-out look, complete with ripped jeans and leather vest? So awesome. Definitely have to play proper homage to this rockin’ faux band of the late-80’s/early-90’s. And the bonus? Those dudes hit the marketing and public relations jack-pot so...

Words for the Week: No Time Like the Present
Okay, time seriously needs to slow down! Geez. And although it feels like my world has been spinning like crazy, the amount of tasks I have accomplished has been great.
