Yay! Forty four makes me laugh, and amen to eighty two (and eighty three)!

My verification word is fxjao, which sounds like it should be a portugese swear. Just so you know.

Anna I have this really cool son I want to fix you up with....If you had just met me on a blog like this would you trust me to choose your husband? Because if I'd known you just from your blog I would have been a total Yenta, and wanted you to go out with my son. So I'm glad it worked out.

Hey Anna- when I was about 10 I had a beauty parlor in my basement. I cut all my friends hair. Then I got in trouble by all their mothers..I have always been obsessed with hair.
