That was fun. I loved 3's company when I was young and I saw U2 in concert twice when I was a teen. We have so much in common, except that whole running thing. You would be proud, we joined a gym this weekend. Now we just have to go.

we should play scrabble on FB. they have a beta version my siblings and I have been playing online. a bit buggy, but it works well enough.
