Oh geez, where am I? Once I read “pink underwear” I was hooked! We all must have of pair of those! It’s like when I borrowed my sister’s bewbs, got drunk and ran into my ex. After doing the crawl of shame out his door, I realized I forgot my sister’s bewbs in his bed! I had to call and leave a message asking for my sister’s silicone fillers back!

Bon mots. Tasty little bites. Like petit fours but with a lower glycemic index.
