I like the taste of blood in my mouth as I rip the skin from my bottom lip. In some way it’s soothing, familiar, it’s not a particular good taste but not a bad taste either. I don’t consider this self-harming. I do it more in the winter when my lips are particularly dry but the dryness is really jus ...

Sometimes a girl is just drawn to pretty little things. So, even though I should probably have revamped my little purses to make them a bit bigger, as long as I was reworking the basic design anyway, I didn't.

Pure, undiluted, untouched joy.” ~ Anne Lindbergh Filed under: Albuquerque, Plants and Flowers Tagged: flowers, fo ...

Every year we have to deal with the issue of what to do about pricing at Valentine’s Day. The sad truth is that the growers and wholesalers raise the prices to the retailers for this holiday.
