See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

information libertarian

Ear infections aren't usually contagious per se. They usually are a secondary bacterial infection that occurs in the ear as a result of poor drainage. The primary infection is usually viral (a cold) (which is contagious, of course). Kids get them so much more often than adults because the tubes that drain the ears are really tiny in kids, so it's much easier to build up fluid that then festers from the zillions of bacteria that are hanging around the body anyway.

Aaaaand, Happy Birthday Juliana, may you have no ear infections this year!

Hippo birdies, juliana!

I'd really like this sofa but I have a feeling it would take up most of the floorspace of my petite living room!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Juliana! And also my grandmother.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy Birthday, Juliana!!
