Thumbnail image for YOU would make a GREAT *before* picture!

ShareI wrote the following post nearly a month ago. Looking at it today, I realize that this incident played a big role in my disappearance over the past few weeks. I’ve been hiding out, pondering the question:  “What the hell am I doing?” Which is strange. I usually run off and hide *after* I click [...]
