Done Good
Today I did a good deed. I hope you have too. I’ll leave both to your imagination. I’ve played on Steam, had a Mexican Coke and a Japanese Sprite. I pushed out another piece of trashy digital art. I’m blogging right now. I read scripture in German and listened to hymns in English with the…
