just one more thing to forget
so that's just one more thing to forget ... your name...although we figured you out. Send me your phone number to my full name (first and last no spaces) at gmail so I can send you my phone number and get yours to call you some night after 9 or weekend.October 17 2005, 22:55:33 UTC 6 years ago
