Don’t Blink

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

You know that song (not sure who sings it?) Don’t Blink? I heard it once and had it stuck in my head for the next solid week and a half. And now everyone reading this probably has it stuck in their head. Sorry! But my point is, it’s true. Three months ago, my baby girl […]
