Having Multiples…I can barely manage my two!
I have to admit something. I have a sort of addiction that I’m really not proud of.

Sacrifices for Beauty
You guys, I can’t feel my fingertips. I could commit a rash of different crimes and never be implicated. You want to know why?

When they say that […]
