Beware the Dog
2003-01-11 || Who I am, Like it or not.
I am one of those people that is always wishing that they were different, better, smarter, more like other people ... Like a nuprin or better. Or something. ("Little, yellow, different, better.") The below lesson is hopefully a chance and beginning to learn to respect who I really am. Following someday soon ... WHO I WISH I WAS.

Try not to laugh. Too much.
