    MrClintonsFirstLady, you are so serene. How do you stay that way?


    Why is the Coldest Winter Ever your favorite book and did you read Midnight's story?


    I read the Coldest Winter Ever some years ago and it was a good book. I wanted to smack the main character to make her see there is more to life than hustlin' and material things but there are people out there who are just like her that will NEVER learn.

    Hey girl! I loved reading about you. Your job seems fun, but that dream job would be bananas. As for the cigar roller, we can split the cost and you have him on your day for half of the cigars and I will have him for mine with the other half. LOL......

    You are going to have a good time!!!! I am trying to decide what night I want to go out. They have so much going on. But my pockets can't handle these cover charges if I do it all 4 nights. So we will see.

    I enjoyed reading about you!  I have to say, why wish you finished when you can finish!  Go for it girl, go back and finish your degree.  After planning your wedding AND dealing with unnecessary drama, finals and research papers will be soooooo easy!!
