       I saw her monsters and it is true they are adorable, however it is someone else’s turn to win. But here is my unofficial non-entry: “Blow me up, let’s have fun.” Blow-up doll, get it? 🙂

   Everyone needs someone to adore them…even if that someone is a green, one-eyed monster. And I’ve heard…um…er…that they are excellent lovers. Just close your eyes, go with the flow, but be sure to caution them to be careful with the teeth. 😁
