I can't have fun at all. Now it is even worse, because my contract ended last week I'm unemployed, and I spend my days at home, watching old films and photos and listening to the music Annie and I used to play when we were together. This is total disaster. I really want to sleep and never wake up. Sorry again. Michael. Down: deprimido Since: desde Nowhere: ninguna parte Write him back giving him some advice.
