Thumbs up I had a WOW moment this AM
So as I am driving into work.. I happen to look down toward my feet and noticed something.. OMG is that the car seat I can see between my thighs?!?! what!!! YEAH IT IS peeping through my now smaller thighs is that gray leather seat stareing back at me!! O-M-G! I nearly veared off the road and pee'd in glee!
