well considering I will be seeing Andy in almost a week..

Seriously everytime I am there, the entire female staff is about 5'2" to 5'4"... I love it.. it makes me feel tall for once in my life...
Maggie, no, I didn't get the memo, but I will be better from now on...
Courtney, Yes, Maggie does have a tiara for me.. it comes in the form of duct tape and really is more like straps rather than a tiara...
