new music

i can't wait to go fishing

i was looking through our fishing pictures for some to send to josh and thought to my self..."self, that is one pretty lady holding one pretty fish." i can't go fishing in winter becouse the car will not make it. i am trying to save for a truck. when i get one i will put up some new fishing pictures.

A man was laying in bed with his new girlfriend. After having great sex, she spent the next hour just scratching his nuts, something she seemed to love to do.
As he was enjoying it, he turned and asked her, 'Why do you love doing that?'
'Because,' she replied, 'I really miss mine.'
