FUCK, that is dedication on your part, i hope you get paid a lot for it, what it must be like a 10 hour drive, at least?! It's the little things like that that i find so amazing about you, i could never do that, i would go insane and run out of things to talk about.
I MEANT CLOTHES FOR WARMTH!

I got a copy of the Sims 3, whooo! havent played a computer game in YEARS, but am enjoying it, keeps the boredom at bay on the weekend.
