This is a big deal… Now, for some fun thoughts: 1. And the dem candidate is also a professor at the same small college! Ooooohhh, think of the […]
Elby, That Cat! is famous for his chewing. He is a connoisseur of string, the chords that raise blinds up and down, the string that keeps sweatpants up, and today…. Today, that little fiend chewed one of the straps of a new bra. TMI? I want to be that little lamb, belting out my distress! […]
