Thanks, Rachel...
And I tried hitting the next button last night and found lots of advertisements --and some really cool blogs...kinda fun actually...something new to do at work when the phones aren't ringing...
I'll probably be tracking yours too (if you don't mind, that is) because you make me laugh. ANd one can always use a good hearty HA! every now and then...and a giggle turned into a snort never hurt anybody either...it only caused lots of embarrassment...
And my ramblings will now cease otherwise your 'adoring fans' will be taken up with only my words.

Beijos,
Lydia =)

I loved the "worms on the sidewalk" part. The pessimist in me is amused with the "wait, it gets worse" in that situation. Miss you, by the way.

Here an idea, Do the quotes again, only do what the people would say if they were inside the pit, instead of outside.
