For the first time in the league’s history, the trophy is going to a non-Clausen Ave resident. Aunt Erin won it this year. Anyway, moving on.
This week marks the start of the playoffs for the NFL started with a wildcard week and my top two teams were the Rams and the Chargers (will get more on that in a bit)
Yesterday, we went downtown and checked out a Barnes and Noble bookstore, which was located inside an old bank. I picked up a book called Holistic Healing, which relates to my major plus a novel, and Mom picked up a book related to my minor, Expressive Therapies. We tehn went to lunch at a nearby Japanese place.





Over the past week, there have been ongoing fires in and around Los Angeles County, causing many people to evacuate their homes, and there are a handful who have lost their lives. The Rams-Vikings wildcard game, initially scheduled to be hosted by the Rams, has been moved to State Farm Stadium in Arizona (home of the Cardinals). I have decided to route for the Rams in memory of those who lost a home.
