Alien Abduction.
Saturday afternoon came and went and I was pretty normal and relatively well behaved. Not a care in the world. Until I was abducted by aliens. Or something. And took it out on you.

Creativity stands for originality and I for one consider originality to be sacred.
One kind friend pointed out that perhaps the essence of
