Mitra suggested that since my last post was about my vagina, I should write about my boobs today. I thought about it, and almost did, but I was just now reminded that today is the sixteenth anniversary of my Dad dying. It’s not that I can’t write about my boobs because of that, I just think I should write about him. I’ll write about my boobs another day.
