I'm Dotty

Luke knows all about drugs. Sometimes I can sit by the window, fall asleep and when I wake up again, he's still talking about drugs. I don't know where such a nice young man learnt all about them but I expect it's important to know about these things these days. Today, Luke and I talked about how zombies come to be.
