beautiful.

“You’d like to ride in stranger’s cars all day long?”

Thanks so much!

Do you vote? I have a feeling this is going to be a rough week.

Oh, and I haven't forgotten about the religion conversation, even though it's been a month. I'm going to think about and respond to that soon.

Utterly lovely. I wonder what my novel characters would have to say about some of the Idol topics, and this was a refreshing approach to the topic. Everyone knows that legend, but you gave it a soul through this character. Made me shiver a bit.
