Juego al Touch

El otro día en un restaurant creí ver a Julieta Venegas en la mesa de al lado. Pero en seguida la vi cargar un bebé y pense no, que yo sepa no tiene hijos. Disimuladamente vi con quien estaba y descubrí a otra Julueta Venegas que tenía que ser Julieta Venegas. Pensé, que yo sepa [...]


If it’s not love…

…then it’s the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the bomb that will keep us together.
