It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Auto-correct has been the death of my spelling ability. But they still said 19 of 23 was good.

I'm the smrtest. I stay away from quizzes that will frustrate me.

... I can't believe I'm about to ask this question of the Hivemind ...
Has anyone ordered anything from QVC? They have a dress that looks like the standard fit&flare, full-ish skirted dress that I am *always* looking for. (If I got it, it would, of course, have black lace trim added to it, because that's what happens to every dress that I get.)
QVC. Yes? No? Jilli, you've lost your mind?
