Lyrics in the sky;o
Thank you for the grilled chicken update. I was wondering if you liked it. That type of message should be posted as a comment so everyone can see it. I reposted it as a blog.
Yeah, there are some things I want to do to it. For starters paying
more attention to it. I don't have a computer of my own anymore so it's
hard to even be on long enough to modify anything, much less overhaul
it as I would like.
Experience the best unsigned singer songwriter & her band, Skylar & Catapult Fusxion, at the CAT CLUB on Sunset Blvd, Sunday night, TONITE, MAY 17, 2009 @ 7 p.m. I know I will... enjoy the music... and open for her w a few choice jokes... Stand up Comedy and Rock n Roll, now there's a combo that u can't resist. Sasha
