Kristen, I have to laugh reading this. It reminds me that we are often forced to write what we don’t wanna write. Case in point – my career peaked last Thursday when I wrote a sentence that included the words “artificial sphincter.” I must now crawl off and die. :P
That’s hilarious. I am going to mock you forever. :] Sorry!
