I just gave a client (I'll keep her anonymous) permission not to clean her house. See all the things an agent can do for you. Don't tell me you don't need one after hearing that!

Flamingo hugs aren’t for everyone.
But this flamingo is willing to try anything to gain the affection of zoo patrons: disguises, dancing, and even fishy gifts. Her clumsiness may set her plans afoul, but it is also the key to achieving her dreams.

somewhere tonight there's a girl writing a novel between working two jobs, ignoring the voices telling her to give up. I hope she never does. I hope her future is a good one.
