I hate you all and I’m never coming back. \ Er… no. Actually, in a few days I’m going to be heading up north to college. I’m going on a hiking trip (this should be amusing) with some other freshmen before school starts, so I’m going to be sans 'net access for about a week and a half. Because of packing and so on, I’m not going to be around much (or at all) before I leave on the 5th… so… just in case any of you wonder why I’ve suddenly shut up. Wish me luck. Oh, I’m getting all teary eyed… you guys are so good to me. \ In all seriousness, I would like to thank the Teeming Millions for your Teemingness. Interpret that as you will. andygirl ---

Good luck Andygirl, just don’t do what a friend of mine did on our hiking trip last week - she peed on a copperhead. Look before you squat! ---

Great flaming 600-foot-Jesus-picking-people-like-flowers! Don’t scare me like that! Hope you have a great time, and I hope you and quietgirl are holding up well. You tell her I said I, and I’m sending good thoughts your way. Una ---

Have fun, **andygirl**. (But as **xizor** said, do look before you squat–leaving poisonous snakes aside, there are some places you just don’t want poison ivy.) ---
