wondering: why are some teenage girl so rude to pregnant women? wait...could be their rude to everyone. I just don't remember being that way myself when I was that age.

Said cookie is gone.
I've swapped my ice cream addiction for a cookie one. The Nordstroms cafe has the best buttery shortbread cookies. Kind of sad that I only go to Nordstroms for the cookies but it's not like I can fit into any of their clothes. :)
