Grandpa Troll says not to mention any places... It will only make LimmerWulf want to run and embrace em... His wandering heart will want to touch bases... As he races there with his social graces... They'l want him to stay, in any cases... Then we'll be alone unless we chase em...// Dragon wants to follow...As word of Drago he wants to swallow... If he does- we'll cry until tomorrow... Hankies we'll have to borrow... and tears we'll have to swallow... So don't mention places or he'll follow!

WOW! Now that was a mouthful... I guess the anesthetic has worn off along with the pain... Yep, Now I'll have to pretend... to get Hubby to take out the garbage in the end... Naw! He's over protective, my friend!
