Dear Kaitlin,

Look around your world pretty baby

Love, God.

Later today, we'll get to spend 6 hours making sandwiches together at work. <3 <3 <3 ( Read more... )

So someone filed a class action law suit against a company I worked for in 2002.

And because I worked for them I got a huge (really)  settlement check in the mail.

So I bought a new bike.

Stoked!

I want to start making public entries again but every time I start one I seize up. What does it all mean?
