Just a Bit of Fun
I was reading my horoscope yesterday, and it explicitly said that “today was my day for major flirting”. Well, far be it for me to argue with the sage wisdom of the heavens. If flirting had to be done, I was ready to do it. Only one problem—there was no one already in my apartment
Do You Ever Notice?

Quick Question About Destiny
I just have a very quick question about destiny, as we all begin to enjoy the coming weekend. I just looked up the definition of destiny. Dictionary.com has it as “the predetermined, usually inevitable or irresistible, course of events.” Cool. Here’s my question- If I believe that dating and marrying George Clooney is my destiny,
Here’s the Thing
