Swaddled in soft pink Among screaming baby boys The only girl born. ~Yep, I was the only girl in the entire nursery born at that time...the nurses loved me to death, LOL. Thanks for the challenge Allan, this was fun! *Krista Knutson* I'm a slow dying flower In a frost-killing hour The sweet turning sour and untouchable... -Natalie Merchant |

You said it, Jeremy! Jason on Friday the 13th... DancinQueen getting dropped on tha head (lol)... and now this too... I had no idea we all had such interesting stories to share. I'm glad that you gave me the idea for the challenge, Jeremy. This particular one caught me off guard... i don't believe I have ever seen you before this, Alwye. It is flattering that I brought you out of your proverbial cave. ~_^ -Allan Eternal life without the darkness isn't life at all- it is a lobotomy. |

Nice one. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |
