midgeling: life in a shoe.

I have fallen in love. We finally got the XM Radio fixed in my car. When we first had it activated, I got a handful of crappy stations. Now I get them all. My favorites?

But in the future I really need to be selective and show much more discretion and reserve when handing over trust. That has always been a hard lesson for me. I seem to have that psychic "FOOL" tattoo imprinted on my forehead. But as the mantra goes, "It will get better...:
