Intro and question :) Pamela

[Guest guest]

I need all the help I can get! I get these ideas stuck in my head

and I'm not happy until I do something with them. I know I can get

Everclear in Vegas (which I'm going to today) but I'm not real sure

on my little town. Never looked really.

 

How long have you had yours soaking? Just so I can get a time

frame

 

Thanks for the info!
