You know, I have absolutely no idea. I mean, I probably do, but I just don't have the brainpower to come up with anything right now. Either that or I don't have the balls to admit to myself what I really want, but that's too much psychoanalysis for 4:50 in the morning, so I'm just going to see how many other questions I can answer without really answering. =^)

Oh, by the way, I really like the responses I've read so far. Veddy veddy interesting. Rock on...
