Okay so I’m back (somewhat) after a few days without internet, and well, fact is my ability to access the internet is still a bit iffy for the time being. But I’ll do my best. Anyway, it’s a long story, mostly boring so I won’t really go into it. But it’s sandwiched around a couple of fifteen hour bus-rides, and let’s just say I’d rather spend a week in prison than ever travel by Greyhound again. And I really don’t want to go to jail. Cause it’s like “when in rome…� ya know? And lets just say I’d rather not rape anybody.

But anyway, I was making the internet rounds this morning, when I realized I’m tardy on these memes I got with a couple of days ago, by Ezra and Lauren, respectively. And Lauren’s is the same one Pam did earlier. But I’ll get Ezra’s out of the way first. Just cuz.

I stuck ‘em below the fold, cause it’s kinda long. But they’re worth reading. Trust me.
