Fracas Noir – Susanne Waldau – te Brake ~ for better or worse

The jetlag is killing me. Or more like 3 people being out of synch in one hotelroom. Once again I woke up before the sun did and started cramping up. That together with tingling sensation in my hand and loss of power are the tell tale signs I need to get more sleep. As a [...]
