More from Mel!
Just on a whim, I decided to click on LJ, and it appeared! Walla, as someone wrote recently on a message board I sometimes read. (I shuddered, but I can't resist poking fun in a safe forum . . .) I have no idea how long I'll get to keep access this time, but here I am for now ( Read more... )
