I’ve been waiting for a Miracurl. No, that’s not a typo for miracle; it’s really a Mircacurl that I am waiting for. I was first introduced to the Miracurl while on a catamaran in the Dominican Republic, way back in May. A fellow tourist sold me on the wondrous capabilities of the Miracurl, and I
OUTRAGEOUS LIVING.
