correction for mistyping your weight at birth. Your weight was 7 lb. 11 1/2 oz.
ReplyDeleteAnd some how I messed up the numbering on mine.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, I craved a beer like nobody's business. I actually tried the O'Douls and was very pleasantly surprised that it satisfied the taste buds without the guilt. I thought that was a weird craving since we don't drink a lot now that we are old and responsible.
