Favorite Quote:
&quot;You love someone, you open yourself up to suffering, that&#039;s the sad truth. Maybe they&#039;ll break your heart, maybe you&#039;ll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. The thought of losing so much control over personal happiness is unbearable. That&#039;s the burden. Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens which allow us to fly...&quot;<br /> -Dr. Jack Hodgins (Bones)

Chose a number, or eat a cucumber

Choose zero to run in a meadow
Choose one for fun
Choose two to get your own statue
Choose three to get some tea
Choose four if this is a bore
Choose five to skydive
Choose six to get trail mix
Choose seven to jump to eleven
Choose eight to get fish bait
Choose nine to get free wine
Choose eleven to visit heaven
Choose fifteen to jump to eighteen
Choose twelve to get a new shelve
Choose eighteen to meet a marine
Choose ten to start ALL OVER AGAIN!
