Wow, 8 years? I’m always floored when I realize I’ve known some of you cretins for 10 years.

Congrats!

Cretin? Who are you calling a cretin? Sorry, no time for fighting - I have to run.

Funny how time flies when you’re not divorced yet.

The first time I met you, you had pink hair. Those were the days.

Miss Manners used to recommend “I’m so sorry,” until someone confronted her with, “If I’m happy and he’s happy, what are you so sorry about?” She now recommends, “I wish you the best.”

Ahem. It was BRIGHT RED. FLAMING RED, to be exact.

I did have pink hair in college. My awesome advisor/professor looked at me and said. “Hm. I see you have a new hair color.” So matter of fact I about fell off my chair.

I miss being a blonde, too.

Anyway, I’m glad for you. Go get 'em tiger! 😉
