Posted on September 29, 2010 by larva225

I shat the sheriff…

Posted on September 28, 2010 by larva225

Last day (sorry, no witty title this time)

Posted on September 23, 2010 by larva225

Spawn and Quartered?

Posted on September 22, 2010 by larva225

I knew that eventually my white-coat syndrome would kick in and that my nerves would present themselves.  For those of you who missed it, I HATE doctors.  If I were empress, they would all be forced to wear either a … Continue reading →

Mother-morphosis

Posted on September 17, 2010 by larva225
