Everything you just said is PRECISELY how I feel. <BR/><BR/>And this is why I am genuinely addicted to your writing. You find the most applicable and entertaining and relate-able ways to express everything.

I love going home and being spoiled (ie: eating haagen daaz ice cream, not the store brand). But you're right, the most important part is the quality time spent together. <BR/><BR/>P.S.
