I have two serious journal entries to make, but I’m too tired to make them now, so I’ll just talk about TEH CANDY STORE. Those following closely (collect all n!) will want to remind me to post about Andrina and about whistle dorks, should I forget in the next few days. I also can’t make […]

Pants! Pantspantspantspantspants! Find out what YOUR inner non-sequitur is! quiz by A.V. Phibes (To which I add: Pantspantspantspantspants.)
