About Me

While I'm changing things - 'hello' I'm too tired to write anything else, the other day it took me about 40 mins to send 1 short text message because I got so distracted. The contract for our rent runs out tomorrow, I hope we dont get kicked out!! At least I know I always have a home on myspace, not too useful in the cold weather though, and internet access is needed.
