Utočili na mě děsi, všemožné příšery, tlamy otevřené, oči vyvalené, co chvíli to vypadalo, že je po mě. Fakt jsem se bála. Musela jsem vstát, rozsvítit a zaměstnat se něčím jiným, abych se jich zbavila.
Takže vytyčuji téma: tajemno... Setkali jste se s něčím, co si nedokážete vysvětlit?

Biweekly is a terrible word.

And every two weeks, for every two weeks.
