Story ideas.

Quote of the day
Yes, I'm that girl. The one who waits for the Hallmark holiday to tell the guy she's crazy about the things she wants to tell him every day, but can't get him to stay awake long enough to tell him. Never in a million years would I have thought that the painfully resonating "yo" on the other end of the line would belong to the person who I now can't imagine being without. Without you, I'd have no one to beat at dominoes, no one to show me the true importance at following a recipe, no one to make me laugh, make me giddy and make me fat. No one to challenge what I say, question what I believe and encourage me to stand up for myself. You mean so much to me...I'm insanely crazy about you. Well, except when you use that forbidden phrase - then I'm only a little crazy about you. I got butterflies the first time you kissed me, and they haven't gone away. I hope they never do.
