This is really late for #household peg day- appologies @nom. She pegged it on the kitty cat, she pegged it on the moon, she pegged it on her state of mind, she pegged it on a tune.
If you want to escape, hop into a book. I promise there's more here than how it may look. Torn cover, tattered pages, some wear and some tear.
