Don't worry; this is not gonna be some My-So-Called-Life type of entry. It's just that I haven't gone to a show in quite a while...well, a month....but that's a long time for me!!!

I'm sure glad that watching TMNT ranks right up there with getting your drivers license and moving in with me. Who knows, maybe this year you'll watch Double Dragon: The Movie. One can only hope...and buy obscure 90's movies.
P.S. I love you.
Congatulations!!!!! I heard you finally did! That is quite the ring too! You rich people, always flaunting your money! Seriously, congrats! Wow, all of these sentances have exclamation points!
