I enjoy his music while thanking God for nature, eventually though my mind shifts and I begin dreading the next morning, when I will be forced to take absence from my kingdom.<br />I am thinking of naming one of the ant hills "Pico Rachel Rants", those guys are The Gritty Poethttp://www.grittypoet.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437750058361105497.post-15726066033067006622011-03-29T22:35:34.905-03:002011-03-29T22:35:34.905-03:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13209527132116902328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8437750058361105497.post-23179446169497490192011-03-29T21:36:41.434-03:002011-03-29T21:36:41.434-03:00hi rachel!
