Un-plugged
posted about 1 year ago | 2 comments
I'm addicted to TV and I'm getting ready to pull the plug. It's too expensive and I'm spending way too many hours in front of the "boob tube".
When I was a child, we didn't own a TV. We were having too much fun playing outdoors and using our imag...

I'm not a good writer. I have these thoughts bouncing around in my head, but when it comes time to write them, the words don't flow out like they should. When I go back to read what I've written, it's just a bunch of choppy sentences that don't me...
