Love this!Staraj says,
I six from experience. :-)notjustagirlintheworld says,
very nice.accidentaltourist says,
Who is Lily? ;)Staraj says,
The Lily with pads like you wouldn't believe. (But I assume Believe would believe.)Dragonflower says,
Oh my goodness. Gracious. Duped again. Is this about porn?Staraj says,
No worries, Autumn22. A six only becomes porn when accidentaltourist and me drive it off the straight and narrow path. She and I could turn a Mister Rogers monologue into sexual perversion. For everyone else, this six is about what originally brought tears to your eyes. (Just close your eyes whenever you come across an exchange between AT and me.)Dragonflower says,
Thanks for the explanation. Forewarned is forearmed. Or something like that. I'll just go back to my lilypad. !! :)accidentaltourist says,
Guilty as charged. ;) Sorry Autumn, I play dirty. (see what I mean? I can't help myself)Staraj says,
(pssst . . . Autumn22 . . . close your eyes)Ahhh yes, AT, I love how you play . . . and in the words of Jerry Maguire, "Help me help you" . . . stay dirty.
