Tours, Travels, and That Fangirl Life
That line, from the Eagles' "Fast Company", has been echoing in my mind a lot lately. I've had a weird health issue/injury for awhile now (nothing dire, just uncomfortable) and the inactivity caused by that, in addition to the freezing cold weather and feet of snow, has contributed to a lovely depression these last few …
