Goodbye 2009

Goodbye 2009

[ 0 ] Dec 31, 2009

In case you hadn’t picked up on this already, I’m not a very sappy person. I’m more of a reactor than a brooder. When I get dumped, I don’t eat cartons of ice cream; I’m more likely to date your best friend or chop off all my hair (a la Britney Spears).  And I’m one [...]
