About Me

If three years ago you had told me I would crush on little white dogs, I would have hurled as many Spanish insults at you as possible and punched you in the face. Now I have a Bichon and a Maltese and my anger-management issues are under control. Little white dogs will do that to you. On the subject of little white dogs:
