My excuse is that Elly still retains all of her 2008 memories and lacks the mental discipline to try limiting her usage to expressions that were current in 1981. :)April Pattersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364188321350027405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115958760816352341.post-83052824700540459082010-01-08T11:19:53.686-05:002010-01-08T11:19:53.686-05:00Oh noes.
