Not Leg Day
Swinga asked me to Q several weeks ago. Of course I accepted. You see, I have a weakness for never saying no to a Q request. Well mostly. Sorry Abraham if you’re reading this. I promise I’m still working on getting to the Swamp soon. Promise. But seriously, Lenoir is not a quick hop and […]
