Bad Habit (MM #5206)
We're all guilty of having a bad habit or two—some worse than others. I've picked up a new nightly habit, and while it's not too severe, I find it causing me to stay up a little later than I should. …

Simple (MM #5201)
Over the years, I've been accused of being a complex person. Some consider this a compliment, but to others, it's not. But as I've gotten older, I've mellowed. And now, you might even say I'm simple.…
