I hate to point this out to you, but you were happier and you gained weight and were poorer! What's up with that? The only reason I mention it is because I've been there. I keep thinking that being thinner and richer will make me happier, but that's so not true.
Also, EVERYONE wants number 6. EVERYONE.
Yeah...Number 6. I had it the other night. And GW Bush? He depresses me every day.
#33 works for me as well! As a matter of fact they seem to be getting longer.
Wild about Doll Houses
Yes, more number 6 is always good. My own fault, mostly - I just need to be able to stay awake so that there is a chance it might happen. Why am I so damn tired?)
And I'm with Mocha on the richer and thinner thing.
Your lack of #6 just means (to me) you're not remembering your dreams well enough. Work on that, and #6 becomes suddenly blah-zay (sorry, can't do the accent mark).
Last night I totally did it with Merlin Olsen! In his overalls!
Here's to a fatter, poorer, happier New Year, with hot sex.
I like number 38... and I also suffer from #9.
Memo to Ms. Stapler: Troy died 10-01-05. Sadly. Very sadly. Especially for you lovely ladies out there. Actually, thinking of him makes me happy, especially the way he mispronounced the word "liability." Seemingly, when he said it, it had 5 L's in it.
Totally stealing this meme from you.
I get #6. Sorry.
