My idiot self

…or how I tried to donate big bucks to Victoria’s Secret. Saturday we got an alert from our bank that there was a withdrawal for a large sum. It was a very large sum to Victoria’s Secret. “Holy crap!” I thought, “someone got that Christmas BIG-Wish List catalog from VS and just bought the diamondContinue reading “My idiot self”

My boots were stolen

When something’s stolen from you, right off your feet practically, there’s only one thing to do. Go shopping. I was notified of an amazing sale on 6pm.com the other day.

I remember timesContinue reading “I don’t care, you’re still going to school”
