1 month to go


So, we now have a skype name. It is jonathanashleywallace. have you heard of skype. it is an easy cheap way to call internationally from your computer. cool. I just called ashley from this computer for 2.1 cents per minute. would have been cooler if she wasn't in the same room. Another cool thing is if you had a skype name, you could call me from your computer for free, if we were both on the internet & skype & somewhere in the WORLD.

COOL.

We're getting excited to get outta this crazy town. A lot of stuff has come together, and a lot is left to do.

See ya.
