I’m sensing a real lack of confidence, Pumpkins. In our leaders. In ourselves. Even in our shape wear. I lost a violent skirmish with a “belly buster” when it snapped my kidneys into next week. I’m done with steel belted…
My lexicon is not fertile enough to aptly expose to you, dear Pumpkins, the depth of repugnance I feel for a certain travel person (I’d love to know how many readers just marked their laundry). The kind of person who…
