If she's more than just a cameo, she better be one of the chicks who gets gang trained. Ok, thats a little harsh. But she really should die a terrible death haha
When am I coming to Sac...hmmmmm...I do believe that it's your turn to come to LA, my friend.
I'm signing the lease for my new place tomorrow. It's about 2 blks away from the Overland Cafe. That's so my new (old) breakfast place. Meet me there for a little champagne brunch?
it's starting to look like i'm the only one leaving comments for you. but i just had to tell you about this website: http://www.wholesomewear.com/page-3.html.
it's freakin awesome. and by "awesome" i mean really, really scary. and i think we should both get one. =)
ok, i'm really, really not allowed to look at anybody else's myspace page ever again. it's just not healthy. i'm gonna need you to hold me accountable to that. ha, ha...that reminds me of our church days when we'd have accountability partners to keep us from drinking and doing drugs and having sex. and we all know how well that worked. =)
