Snurched from bluespirit_star

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don’t blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don’t blog about, but you’d like to hear about, and I’ll comment on it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on tv, favorite type of underwear, ( Read more... )
