Recently, I was asked by a company if I would write a sponsored post about a Microliner. I was at first like, “Me, no way! I’m not old enough for that”. But, then I was like, “It has nothing to do with age”. Besides, who am I kidding; I wear a panty liner everyday for bladder leakage to stay fresh. There, I said it! Especially…
