Inspired by the discovery of Normal Moments in Art History With No Murder and with paintings provided by Ariel , I have created a little tribute to some of the Murderous Ladies of Western Art History. Best moment: Representing my School at Debating Future Plans: Winning more Debates what is for dinner? did you buy the shampoo I like? how could you leave the house in that? Your mum’s kinda quiet … Now just get that back to the bench and I’ll get everything else. Start prepping it for the stock, but pluck all the hair. Gary hates hair in stock and I want to win this challenge. I tried one bell, then three bells, but she just kept bringing them back. She loves playing with them, I guess. It’s in her nature. And she does keep them out of the house as well, so that's good. He told me I was spending too much time on Pinterest. He told me he wanted me to spend more time with him.

All of the conclusions can b
