That's good that you don't need the storage unit anymore. I wish we didn't the price goes up every GD month I think.

Oh now that one is interesting. I think if I could move somewhere warm all year I'd probably stay there while Andrea is alive. She's the one who can't stand the cold with her crest and all that goes with it.
Me? I could live in the artic as long as there was a working heater for night.

Understandable.

Table is in the living room now. We're just so packed in, it's not even funny.
