It’s sort of funny. After putting up the Fluid Pudding Hippo Banner, I quickly received six e-mails saying, “I’m really hating that hippo banner.” One of my six unsolicited banner judges even said, “I don’t think I can come back here as long as you have that hippo banner.” Yesterday I woke up and said, [...]

I almost forgot to post something! Hey there! HERE IS THE BREAKDOWN OF MY DAY: (This is the perfect time for you to go somewhere else. May I suggest a trip over here?) My mom came over, we went to Starbucks, and then we cleaned the girls’ room and decorated it for the holidays. Winter [...]
