Making Up in L.A.

A Note From an Illiterate Guest Blogger

March 12, 2009 by WendyB

I asked my gorgeous nephew, Sebastian Berry, to write a post for me. Unfortunately, he is illiterate and has two left feet when it comes to typing. Here’s his message: “asdfkajdgs345o8dgkjdlk;d ncdfakl adoifgjg3ra9odfB1.,jupf.cseb dv kmfgs≥lijaer;obdfjlsrv fsgeAILjheraglgdvmklcl/WRGIHGDZ;sxfjg2q-0fsj;svg;;.dfbje3p0[1qlfsgj;sflpis;fljbg;psop;adfgj.” Makes about as much sense as most stuff you read on the interwebs, actually.
