Decada

We are in the last quarter of the year AND the decade. After the week I have had, hell, the month, year as well, I think this would be the perfect time to draw up an accountability checklist. Many of you are not going to like it, because it puts your life into perspective and makes you wonder what the hell have you been wasting your time on…
