Kinda hard to have you help me pluck chickens.

Well, we could always all decide to have a fire on the same night at the same time, and keep in contact thru the net.

 

[Wannabefree]

I'm sitting in front of my fire right now. And, it feels good! I just need to figure out a better way to use my lap top than on a bed tray on my lap! It works fine if I'm on it in bed, but not so much in this chair!
