And if she were here, there’s a decent chance she’d be helping you tie the most effective knots… virtually, anyway. (IRL, she does have a bf, and… well, it isn’t me.) ---

I apologize for this site, which apparently asks anyone who come to enter their email address and choose a password. What a bother. In fact, I hope this general invitation works (I don’t know if it will). I didn’t realize it was so persnickety until I’d gone to all the work of entering captions, etc. Sigh.

swell pictures (should have stayed - I missed a massage chain??), the unidentified back of a head with long wavy brown hair, wearing red, was me, (you couldn’t quite see my snazzy Warner Bro’s barette in my hair, and on the front of said t-shirt was Sylvester proudly proclaiming ‘Mithigan Thate Univerthity’) This fashion moment has been brought to you by _Vogue_ remember, if you can’t spell it, it has to be French. ---

Excellent pictures, **Cranky** gal! I cannot tell you the relief I felt as I realized that none of those pictures showed me flashing my panties inadvertently! Plus there were no pictures of me spilling stuff. Thanks be to god! Tae-bo bocce! I love it. Bring it again, next time. What a fun game! Thank you so much for putting those up! ---

What in the Sam Hill has happened in here??? I take a short break because I actually have to go to work, and this place turns in to a rowdy, tire-iron swinging, nylon-rope-tying cootchfest! What’s next? You gonna start throwing chairs? Breaking windows? And how DARE you start these shenanigans without me! Man, would someone at least do me the courtesy of a phone call next time? Now who’s got that rope… ---
