    "My name is Lola, and I'm a coffee addict."

    Oh, this isn't a 12 step program for coffee addicts? *whew* That's a relief. I love, NEED my coffee.

    Love the owls. :)

    Also, I'm running a contest at my blog!

    One lucky winner will win a bottle of Lola perfume (by Marc Jacobs) and a creepy 'IT' (by Stephen King) clown magnet, and his book On Writing...

    Owl be back to visit you soon.

    *crickets*

    Love,
    Lola

    "Owl be back" - ha!

    Thanks for adding yours, Lola! Good to see you here!

    And no, this isn't a twelve step class, because wouldn't we have to quit drinking it, then? (Oh, the horror!)
