Before I launch into my day of indignity, I just want to say that I hate to tell you, but as a species, we're doomed and there's no way around it. The culprit? It's not climate change; it's not nuclear weapons; it's not a worldwide pandemic; it's not even an asteroid of doom heading our way. Oh …

About Sean Layton

Born in the UK, I have lived most of my life under the blazing Arizona sun. Okay, that’s a lie, I’ve been sheltering in the air-conditioned indoors. Anyway, I’m a starving writer with an MFA in creative writing (screenwriting & fiction) from ASU.

After attempting to amuse my friends for years with Facebook posts, I decided to make my tales of woe and musings on life in my tiny universe available online for an even larger audience to ignore (at their own peril).

If you enjoy what you read here, be sure to follow and share!

What others call poor decision making, I call teachable moments.

Now step back a safe distance and watch and learn.
