i have heartburn–
sex appeal!!!
–so i don’t feel like it. i don’t know why heartburn makes me not want to write about tennessee–maybe it’s all the meat we ate there and the fact that i had heartburn pretty much the entire time we were there. but anyway, i’m not going to write about that right now. […]
