19 is too young to be married in this day and age. :(

Just got back from Amsterdam yesterday. We had been staying in Den Haag as well with family. Highly recommend the Mauritshaus and Escher in Het Paleis. Have a wonderful time.

Amazing

Wow. I wonder if I’m colliding the stories of two different celebrities or if I had selectively forgotten detail. Horror. At any rate, I think my perspective still holds.

Wow, love it.

Thank you. My blood pressure was skyrocketing as I read through comments and then your delightfully concise message brought it right back down again. Not alone. Not alone. Not alone.

Your post just made me realize that they are actually two different people. So, yes, I agree.
