Absent minded only when pregnant (those hormones mess you up!) and on bad days, luckily!

So I realized that at previous places I just jumped right in with both feet and didn't properly introduce myself. I'm gonna make a fresh start here!

Meatloaf, Casseroles AND pasta salads... You're missing out on the best parts of life!

ps... and the 'Pokes ARE America's team

Hiya Honey! Wondered when you'd finally get here! And to think I almost cut you down in your post in the Republican Ice Age thread - what a missed opportunity!
