< 2 days left of January!!!!

V Already making plans for Spring/Summer?

[Black Anne Rose]

^ OOOhhhh yes...I remember those days well.

Let me tell you something..It's uber satisfying later in life to see your old arch enemies in some store and they look like trash, are trailing three unruly children or an idiot boyfriend/husband..and juuust for a moment, your eyes meet in years later recognition.

The sweet spot being when they look away. I never had to say a word. The field was leveled at that point. Just wait for it dearie and pay them no mind. The little fifedom they live in will fall after graduation. You do what you want woooagh!
