I like you, you're cute (and not just because of your appearance). I thought I'd tell you that.

Thank you, that made me smile.
I like you too. But, your entries render me speechless because I'm not sure how to reply to such high intelligence.

hi, i am SO nervous, but i've been friended with Joce for a while now and you were one of the few people i wanted to approach to add as a friend, but i wanted to ask first, as i know livejournal can be very personal and unsure.
and i love that word tintinnabulation, it certainly does roll of the tounge so wonderfully :)
take care!
