yeah--im very embarassed too. I know ive been asked before why I dont say it, and I get all flustered and am like, "Dammit, dont mention that subject around me!" lol.

no, I havent worked anymore on chapter 13 yet--ive been working on other fics, but I hope tow ork on that soon :) it is funny how im not the least bit embarassed to write the phrase in a story, but to say it IRL is like "Oh god, id rather die" O.o lol. hopefully when Christmas break starts in about a week, I'll have a lot more time to write. :)
