I mean, sure, I can remember snapshots of various moments of my life, but enough to fill a book with a clean,...
14 posts from now and I'll be at 5000 posts.
I’m thinking of stopping at a nice, round number like 5000. This is a lot of time wasting and protracted distraction. I’ll still do my hair blog and follow people there. But this has begun to feel like something I don’t need to maintain.

And, in another episode, “She’s a very resourcefur girl.” I’m just assuming it’s an homage to Maya Rudolph on SNL. Like Carol Burnett tugging her ear at the end of each episode as a message to her grandma.
