14. You finally put faces with names you’ve seen online for years!
15. Always take that agent/editor appointment you either signed up for or happen to pop up.

I’m innocent.
Val started it.
I didn’t hide nuthin and when I saw that hunk in the Admin’s undies I made sure he took them off again.
It was terrible hardship, I tell you. TERRIBLE.
I had to chase men around the forum, out of showers where Val was “scrubbing” things she claims were his back. I had to evict men from closets where Chelle tried to hide them… (and their socks. And I had to then go count… socks.)
We found Superman passed out on the couch, someone ate the Klondike bars and drank all the beer.
But I’m completely not to blame. I didn’t encourage anything!
*wonders why there is a pit in hell with her name on it*
