Hopefully everyone has returned safely from his or her respective weekends refreshed and ready for yet another week. Personally, I spent my weekend traveling (or that’s how it seemed). After work Friday afternoon, I took off for Auburn to hang out with an acquaintance and experience a little Auburn nightlife. We all went out for [...]
