My thumb actually just goes there. No, really, I can’t control it. This is what I learned about myself a few days ago, when I took my cell phone into the bathroom with me (okay, I know you all do it). I opened it, and my thumb went to the app. I’ve logged out of …
My husband and I are 6 months into marriage. We’re 24 and 22 years old with no kids and work-from-home jobs after long distance.
