[edit] True Confessions

The first thing you should know is, I'm not really Vered. When I learn who I am, I'll let you know.

I live in Nashville, Tennessee. I was born here too, which makes me an endangered species. I was born in the 1960s and I am addicted to karaoke. I don't have issues. I have subscriptions.
