Okay... thanks. That's very logical. It just seemed so bloody weird that everybody disappeared at once.

I am like Evo again, I need my feet to stick out, and I actually like it when my feet are cold. For some reason I like to be a little cold.
ME TOO! :approve:
Wow! What a coincidence. You're both like Evo.

Hmmm... I wonder how Evo would respond?

(p.s. :rolleyes: Has Danger left yet?)

Yeah, but his statement was an agreement with a previous statement of yours. :rolleyes:
Incidentally, what the hell happened that this went from a beehive to dead in a matter of seconds? My poor little arthritic typing fingers welcomed the break, but it was a little disconcerting. :confused:
But I didn't mention the "being cold" part, that was the part to which I was saying "me too".

I might be a tad on the scrawny side, but I'm pretty sure that not even one of me would fit.

Okay, okay! I'm sorry. It's hard to keep track. :redface:

Was that our first fight?




Make-up sex...?

Here's a boring insight into my personality, I guess it could be considered a weird habit. I am not argumentative in my personal relationships. When I get angry I get quiet. I rarely say anything out of anger that I will later regret, instead I prefer walking away from the situation, thinking about it for awhile and when I've cooled off, decide if it's important enough to discuss, it usually isn't.

Same here. Glad to hear it. So if that wasn't our first fight... no make-up sex...? :frown:

Okay, part of that is reasonable... but I'm afraid my ears are a bit flexible.
