My Husband has a Lover…

….and it’s name is ‘Guitar Hero 3′ My son, bless his cotton socks, went out and bought a Playstation 3 and Guitar Hero 3 on Thursday. He set it up in the family room, good little sharer that he is, and it has been running hot ever since. I knew this would happen if that [...]
