I suppose 20 minutes of beating and he'd be having us all up the ass. Or who knows who's reading, maybe it wouldn't require the beating to escalate into the non-erotic. But, baby, I like the way you talk. You say popcorn and microwaves, I say the sweet sweet flutterin of turtledoves. My God if the hat doesn't understand, I'm gonna brace myself for the worst. That said, I was administered morphine for a broken arm. I count the entire expreience as a plus in my life, right up there with getting my wisdom teeth out. I think my eyes are a beacon of freedom. I enjoy federalism with limited state-to-state sovereignty. When I am king peons will actually be peed upon, in the interest of freeing medical professionals to engage in more complex work.

i was a little perturbed when he offered to mop up my piss though.
