Nice lists. Cool! I'm fetching. I always wanted to be fetching or was that fetched or have someone fetch for me? I don't want to fetch, that much I know.
Dumb question - what's ML?
Lisa
Lisa, I wish it were more exciting, but ML = Mary Louisa.
I sign "ML" on all my online group posts, for brevity's sake. In fact, I sign many of them,
"hugs,
ML"
Sickening, ain't it?
Not sickening. Efficient. I'm all about efficient.
