Day three of vacation, and we’re doing fine.
Posted by rdsolange under: life or something like it.

Live and in person at Yaoi Con 2007
Posted by rdsolange under: in person event; life or something like it; yaoicon07.
I’m currently sitting in a hotel room down in San Mateo California where the 2007 Yaoi Con event is taking place this year.
