That much
Annette: “How much do you love me?” JSR: “Baby, I love you sooo much that ….” Annette: (Interrupting) “Do you love me enough to go to the shop and get me chocolate?” Did I go and get it, gentle reader? Of course. I’m whipped.…
Route 666
It’s been a long long day to cap off a long long week. So, much work today during work hours, not crappy work, regular work. Actual productive work, just lots of it. The whole week has been like this. Then, off to the charity benefit of Serenity, bumping into…
