USA!USA!USA!
ReplyDeleteDid anyone watch the curling match last night ? Amazing athleticism from our athletes. I think the US is gaining steam and will start piling up medals.
When you have time, check out "everything sucks" - totally captures what it is like to be thinking you might be a queer girl in high school in the 90s. It's amazing. Plus, Tori Amos music.
