Naaah, really? Wow! 

People would wonder why I’m not scared of posting a lot of stuff about myself over the internet. I’m really not, for some reason. I just found out, by trial and error, which ones to post and which ones to hide. Its a little technique I call “security by obscurity”. I’m sure a handful of you already heard of the term.

Elise: (woke up, screaming) Mommyyyyyy!!

Mommy: Yes, darling?

Elise: Why did you leave my side?

Mommy: Because I’m getting ready to go to the office.

Elise: I don’t want you to go.

Mommy: I’ll be back soon, and your cousins are here to play with you.

Elise: I don’t want them, I want you.
