**poohpah** , dear, thank you for the four hugs. 😃 I certainly need them this morning. I had only two and a half hours of sleep last ni- er, this morning. Yes, my own fault, but… ::sigh:: It’s 7am. Too friggin’ early to be heading to school.

{{poohpah chalupa}}

Monday morning hugs out to:  
{{Myrr21}}  
{{enilorac}}  
{{silent\_rob}}  
{{KKBattousai}}  
{{dpr}}  
{{aw hell, everyone}}

Okay, I better get my pooped self off to school.

I’d really like to not have to ask for a hug, and get one.

Anywho… hmmmm… thinking… {{{{Lynn Bodoni}}}}, just to show that closing my threads, doesn’t make me bitter, and angry.

I wanna hug Shayna and Globe-Trotter, because they’re the bestest damn wimmins on the Boards. They never fail to crack me up per ICQ. You, ladies, are something else!

{{{xizor}}} for starting this whole thing, for warm and fuzzies, for starting a thread about why I am cool, and because it _would be_ very fun.

{{{ssskuggiii}}} for the good talk this afternoon, and being a good friend and putting up with me on a regular basis.

{{{DigitalMuse}}} for putting up with me on a daily basis, and because you won’t let me hug you IRL.

{{{MagicalSilverKey}}} because he is a nice guy and he deserves it, whether he believes it or not. Plus, it’s the closest he’s going to come to getting play. Just kidding
