It felt like summer again

Eight years ago, I packed up a 2000s Dodge Durango — a four-door vehicle that has a history reigning true from my husband’s family to mine — to head two hours on IH-35 southbound to Texas State University. It was college move-in day. 08/21/2024 05:00 PM

Not a temporary daddy's girl

Eminem released “The Death of Slim Shady” a little more than a week ago and, like always, I enjoyed it immensely, but I was shocked by “Temporary.” The song felt like such a 180 after the previous track. Tears began to form in my eyes the moment he said the song was for Hailie and by the time the first chorus hit, I was sobbing at 6 a.m. in bed. Although it doesn’t feature complex lyrics or unique instrumentals, it immediately rose to the top of my album ranking. 07/24/2024 05:00 PM
