liptonrm_backupWell, hmmm, don't tell the Mum, but I went out and bought a bag of contraband ginger snaps. A handful in the afternoon help take me over that 'eat sugar or die' hump that hits me every smegging day. So, sshhh, it's a secret;-).

Date: 2004-01-09 09:31 pm (UTC)And I had a boyfriend in name only. Really, he was just a guy friend of mine, who seemed to sincerely like me (maybe for my great sense of imagination), and played with me and my friends at recess. But at the time, it was kind of the "in" thing, to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. BD had a boyfriend in first grade, and AM of course had a first grade harem. Probably making up for it now, heh-heh. (Sigh) Wasn't life fun when we could play games of pretend?
Thanks a lot for putting that damn song at the bottom of your entry. Now everytime I see it, I can only sing that line, because it's the only one of the whole song I know! AHH!!!-H
