hmmm actually .. my friends keep telling me they're worried about me cause I keep saying that. I have a land of my own called 'La-La land' that has a great book in it that holds every fact I know of, regardless if its founded anywhere.

goes like 'no its true .. Its in some book I have at home ..I'll show you next time your down! .. just remind me'

Thing is normally I'd have it in some book.

I like young sweet garden peas
