World Party Day
Here’s an idea everyone can get behind- World Party Day! The idea comes from the book “Flight- a Quantum Fiction Novel” written 1995 by Vanna Bonta.

While not necessarily hugely important to the overall plot (which is pretty confusing to… Read more »
Independently……. Married?
Something I’ve heard from several women lately is that they are “too independent to be married”.
