yeah, they broke up about a few months ago...that was nice and dramatic too, remind me to tell you about it in person. it makes for a better story that way.

we usually do lock the door, except we just forgot that one time. I almost wish he'd do it again just so i can ream him out good...i've thought up lots of cool things to say now. =)
