Every day when I sit on my commode and stare at my plethora of haircare products, I marvel at the extreme redundancy of this ( stupid product: )

Today I had to drive an hour or so towards where I am originally from to see my son in a concert. He had already bussed to the location early this morning, and my husband wasn't able to go, so I made the trip by myself.

Hello All

As you undoubtedly noticed, there's really not much Rickmanalysis going on around here any more. It's been a little over three years since I became engrossed in Alan Rickman fandom, and over that time I've made many friends here and, as the three years of entries on this journal reflect, had amazing experiences and created countless ( Read more... )
