Here we are… birthday week for my oldest boy. I wrote last week about my inability to remember specific events while I have been behind this walls but when it comes to my boys’ birthdays… I remember every single detail of these weeks. These are the hard weeks in here. These weeks are the ones […]

The NFL is back! Ahhh yes… the best time of the year… both out there and in here (in my opinion) but in here… Man – it is by far the best 5 – 6 months. The time starts to absolutely fly by because all the “homeboys” are busy making mock fantasy teams to compete

I promised myself when I started writing weekly that if I was going to write… I was going to be authentic… I was going to be raw… I was going to be unfiltered (unless it would negatively impact my life in here) and I was going to be honest. And if I am being honest…
