Hon, we have got to measure both of us someday. My last doctor visit they said I'm 5'11" (which I don't believe) and I'm at least an inch taller than you. Or I could just let it go, there is that.
Mauled... by a wild animal? Dude. WHY?!

Date: 2005-08-27 05:14 am (UTC)As far as mauled by a wild animal? I'd rather die a sudden death doing what I enjoy, than to go through any kind of prolonged death thing. I've always felt that way, by the way. The alternative is, I suppose, dying in my sleep, but that just doesn't sound like as much fun.

Date: 2005-08-26 10:11 pm (UTC)My brain kept trying to convince me that "Tanzania" was pronounced "Tahn-Zayneeah" (sort've like "Tasmania") and I just sat here with a stupid look on my face.
Not that my stupid-look is unusual, but I'm finding this all very challenging in an amusing way!
