  20. Okay, totally can relate. I think my teeth dont get as much tlc as they need cause of rushing out the door. Maybe I should just get up earlier? Great magpie!

  21. Linda,
    Cool, 10 syllables (beats my 17 ;0).
    It does get the point across though, and nicely.
    But occassionaly, I just procrastinate. :)
