On The Dark.
SnapDragon originally posted this on Wise & Shine, formerly known as Pointless Overthinking. . . . I’m afraid of the dark. Like, for real.

The Old Highway’s A-Callin’.
Snap & Company are RVing it up, yo. . . . Dear Reader! It’s been a spell, hasn’t it? Sorry about that. These summer days keep slipping past, in a parade of flower-pruning, 70s Sesame Street reruns, and the never-ending sink full of dishes. Why so many dishes? It’s truly baffling. ANYWAY.
