So How Do You Really Feel About That? - 12/12/06 08:23 PM
There used to be this girl in our office---a woman in her early thirties actually, but she reminded me of my 12 year old niece by something that used to always come out of her mouth. Whenever I'd say something opinionated or make an offhand curt remark within earshot of her, she'd blurt out the same … (5 comments)
