Test
I am alive. I have decided I want to start writing here again. FB is fine, but it's not easy for me to be introspective there. Not a safe place.

Darn it.
Yesterday was "Take Your Towel" Day. And since it was a holiday, I only briefly left the house - and completely forgot to bring it with me!!! -
Time difference
For those of you who might not know - I'm American, born of American parents. But I was actually born in Germany, where my father was stationed at the time ( Read more... ) -
Because this cracked me up so much...
I thought I'd share it. Timberlake just needs to join that cast!
