I recently made a hideously-fulfilling digital spy camera purchase and immediately concocted a filthy plan:
Was I successful? Maybe if you read on, I'll tell you.
I know, I know, it's blurry. Relax. Yeesh. What can I say? I was nervous.
Heh, heh. Works every time.
Perfect timing.
This ended up being far too easy. I need something more challenging. Any ideas?
This will give me away…..but do you even know how cute you are????
spy camera seems like fun but don’t use it on me
Hah ha. Don’t worry. I love you Grandma Dot.
I think you should infiltrate a resturant establishment and prove the cleanliness or filthiness of an unsuspecting waiter….or perhaps get certain persons to imitate the master of disguise (movie) as he complains about the lack of appetizers at a wedding.
