I get you. I totally get you. Especially on the random emotional outbursts. ;-) Hope you're enjoying The Martian...it's one of my favoritest books of the year (all 3 months of it).jilllorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04590681369866140119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-61629363922287970612015-03-29T12:11:07.215-04:002015-03-29T12:11:07.215-04:00I forgot about this too and just posted mine today...I forgot about this too and just posted mine today - I love reading about everyone's day and wish I would have taken pictures too!Sheila (Bookjourney)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05354184020340930630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1710818943922563736.post-65557874413062128992015-03-29T10:44:04.866-04:002015-03-29T10:44:04.866-04:00It might be boring to live through, but you made y...It might be boring to live through, but you made your day pretty fun to read about!
