I thought perhaps it was that mischeavous Mr Lurkio changing it from group hug to threesome somehow...Wouldn't put it past him.
Personally though 115K, I don't mind which one you give

Love your list fay, well done for being honest, sometimes the reasons are personal and hard to write down & let others see.
The line above is sooooo true, also anti depressants, I find, do the same thing. Right now I have such a clear mind and it is great, I am ready to tackle my stuff head on. Also, healthy eating & exercise DOOOOO make a big difference, I almost feel like a new person.
And I am sure my ex will be pleased, as it means no more stalker ms_london hehe! :rotfl: :rotfl:
What are everyones plans for the weekend?
