Feel free to add me - I'll add you right now too! :D

And no, it wasn't weird...believe me, I've done weirder things (like stalk Louisa...shh!)...

I wondered the same thing as you. WHAT pleasure can be derived from receiving compliments for something the plagiarizer didn't even create??? These ppl are messed up.
