I wasn't sure if other people ...Alexa, awesome. I wasn't sure if other people would understand the absurdity of believing that BBC's loveable Miss Marple adaptions were a Travel Video Series. Notice how I made a special effort to emphasize the NONFICTION-NESS of the series, in the last line? Just in case they didn't already think I was batshoot crazy...<br /><br />And yeah, them writing me back--put me in a good mood for days :)April Tucholkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12219212423237924363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451750689325363795.post-84133701122369199812012-11-13T14:46:29.217-05:002012-11-13T14:46:29.217-05:00Oh, April, that is brilliant!
