crestfallen

there's this cool thing i can do. it's called reading. for all you genuises out there, it's when you decipher the organization of letters on a page and......o-kay, sorry, that wasn't necessary.

here's what i learn-ded today:

BURIED-in London in a unmarked grave in what was then known as the Dissenters burial ground

Sigmund Freud-explorer of the psyche and first professional to broadly promote cocaine as a tonic. (all my Dr. gives me is prozac)

When she saw what she had done, she gave her father fourty-one.
