Heres 2 things to ponder today;
1. ‘It’s raining men’& ‘let the the bodies hit the floor’ are really the same song from different perspectives
2. Nobody really has their sh*t together, you just get older and give less of a f*ck about it all 🤷🏻‍♀️

First post. No pressure. Just need to say something really meaningful & clever. I can do that. Honestly, I can, I’ve done it many times. Tell them about the squirrel on your house today and how you talked to them and called them Frank. No, they won’t want to know that. Who wants to colour in?
