Yay! I need to add yours to my blogroll *waves from Cyber Space*
Hope you are well.
Yeah, this one really bothers me. In fact it bothers me so much that I can’t even say anything about it that is actually worth saying. Oh, the Advocate, will you ever stop being embarrassing?
By the way, I guess I’ve found your blog. 🙂
