January 5th, 2011 I have watched The Talk since the first day it came on in September.

December 27th, 2010 To me destiny is a future thing, like a goal, but today I came across something that said our destiny is now. For a person like me who always has to be cleaning or building something, that’s kind of hard to wrap my brain around.
