Um... I'm pretty sure no one reads this thing anymore, and if you do, you probably talk to me daily on the phone anyway (Greenock?), so I think I'm going to switch over to using the Myspace blog. If you want to keep tabs on me, go to http://blog.myspace.com/inkbetweentoes to ( Read more... ) -

Panic! At the Apartment
I'm pretty sure I had a panic attack tonight. I was sitting with Michele and Larry (35-year-old childless married teacher friends in LP) and I felt awful.

Bak 2 Skool
Happy Easter.

I just can't fathom it. I just don't understand how they can spend $325 on one meal if they are bedridden and can't work. I mean, I can barely afford $ ( Read more... ) -
