“herb of the sun presents every element of Délise’s writing that makes it unmatchable: the exacto-knife precision of naming the problem, the refusal in discussing it, and the unwillingness to absolve those responsible for the horror.” —Jackie Torres www.sundresspublications.com/e-chaps/herb...

Keep fucking up and a seasoned stud ready to settle down will swoop in where you fucked up. Now shes at your sons football game dressed fly as fuck. Never misses Parent teachers night then going home to a home cooked meal & turning your ex wife every way but loose cause you cant get it right. Sad.

If you ever need a boost, go down to New Orleans if you got big legs. They like that down here and will give you free merchandise and foodstuffs. Thick turn them on down to the bayou… Be aware!
