Well, I could use some change... :-)
CH's BF is visiting tomorrow, for three reasons:
To bring back my DVDs that he tried to rip.
To try to make me play some %^^$# Myth computer game.
To pick up some dragon things. <--------
Thanks to you and Rolex, he will have some very nice dragon things to
admire. Well, he sure can't admire ugly old ME. :-)
(although I may be a bit scaly, and my breath...)
Take care,
Y Not
