I was so excited to write Vogon poetry. (Apparently that's the only kind I write--Everyone's a critic.)
Can you tell me if there'll be a Happy Ending, and if so, by whose definition of Happy Ending?
I love the challenge. I want the tiny cup.

Someone make up my mind for me, okay?
Peer Pressure. FINE! MissBlue is egging me on.
:P I'm in. Please. If I'm not too late.
