On December 25, 2017, I received a Genuine Dickies work coat, registered identification 123187, at the Wal-Mart Supercenter at 1601 Albert Pike Road in Hot Springs.

I had been living on the mesa for several weeks at this point, spending my nights in an off-grid trailer not far from where we were now, but I felt tense and exposed in the high…
Marissa Woo Ms. Barwise ENG 111 12 October 2016 The Red Effect You scroll through the emoji list on your phone for the salsa dancing lady in a red dress. Why are you using this emoji?
