10. I really wish we could, believe me.
But alas, we have obstacles involving childcare, transportation, and money (of course.)

Even still, I will be a sad and jealous little puppy that all of my bestest friends will be there and I will not. You'd better take a gazillion pictures and show them off.

:hug:

12. Told you. She is not discriminating.
Although she's threatening not to come. May have to bribe her. Which won't be hard. She doesn't have any money.

Chris Hansen has given me all I need to know. MSNBC on weekends is actually better than the RW tools they play during the week days; they teach you how to get away with shit.

We can put them in the dog pen, and Natasha can be used for pony rides while Bayleigh chases her tail all day long.

9. Mainers suck at this organizing thing.
We tried to do a meetup.

It failed.

And evidently no one else wants us.
