About Me
- About Me: Hail and Welcome to Aviv's Temple. Come in and find a pillow to rest yourself upon because, basically, I'm too cheap to afford real furniture. Grab a cup of whatever and hang out with the rest of derelicts of society. This is just a place where I call home and don't really care what anyone thinks or does outside my little world. As the song goes,"My body is a temple; Yours is a tent!"
