Viga: Oh man, I'm farting up a storm. So unladylike.
Me: That's okay, I'm oozing pus and blood.

Aren't we just the cutest couple?

dejapes spoke to him over a week ago, and he said he would "almost definitely" drive down that Saturday (eight days ago now). He didn't show up, but we didn't worry at first, because it was the third time in a row he said he was coming down and never showed without telling us he wasn't coming ( Read more... )
