Where the hell do I even begin to talk about my twisted love affair with night time?

People are gross. You are gross. I am gross. People - all people - are gross.

Well, what can I say except I can't always make up my mind. I started this blog as just that - a standalone blog - back in 2012. I had no focus, no nursing license, no podcast.
