Sometimes, in my darkest thoughts, I wish I’d never learned what it is to be in love, and have that love returned. I’ll miss you KatePS. ---

I am 100% understanding that I am fighting an uphill battle here, and I am also 100% understanding that it’s a bit of a silly battle to be fighting given that “my side” has never been a formal “ally”\* and potentially doesn’t care. It’s almost like I’m Big T, but less sensitive or something. Pssst… Bossy is a name for a cow… I’m outta here, cowabunga dudes. ---

Wow! Jokes were posted at a _brisket_ pace, but now, no posts in almost 18 hours. Looks like this thread has _ground_ to a halt. We had fun _roast_ing **KatePS** , but maybe it’s time for the _rib_bing to stop. _Shoulder_ should we not _chuck_ it? ---
