Ok, so if you read the notes on this one, everybody is in LURVE with wayfaringmd’s handwriting. Not me, though — it makes my skin blister and boil, like sunlight on a non-glittering vampire.
FROM ENVY. I remember when I used to have quite a decent cursive script! But it contracted a horrible disease in college, and died an abrupt death when I started taking pre-med science classes.
