My choice puts peoples backs up some times I am on antibiotics it was a easy way to avoid questions. I have gone home alone but that was my choice the small talk and dancing was not for me that night I had other battles and thing’s to do. I enjoy the quality time I experience with my friends meal, movies and clear head money well spent I remember it all. I experienced the one more not sure how much I remember at times mind block. It is a journey of choice flip off two coins well said Fiona.
