I'm going to bed now. I will arise at 6:00 am Eastern time. Please, please pul-lease restrain your BS and stop at 32557. I really, really, really, really, pretty please with sugar on it and I will kick you in the shins if you cross me, want 32558. But not 'til morning. It is my dearest wish to make that post. I have my reasons. All will be clear if you will but exercise a bit of altruism. I will love you all forever and remember you in my Will. (Who needs socks?)

If you ignore this plea, I will cry and sob, pound the floor with my fists and otherwise behave in a most piteous manner to the point you will all be sorry you did not let me have my way, and MOM will cause something really dreadful to happen to you.

Love,

Janie
