Formerly: Why You Think I'm Weird, Stories From My Childhood
I decided to change the name of my blog because it now contains many stories from the current part of my life, which some people insist is something called "grown-up." But how can this not be a childhood? I'm having too much fun! (Looking for actual garter skirts? Try here.)
