When we finally do meet,...

Submitted by JaBbA (not verified) on July 10, 2006 - 5:28am.

When we finally do meet, it’s going to be a very odd conversaion. For we will be forever trying to remember each other’s names.

Glad to hear I’m not the only person who discovers 5 minutes into a conversation that I no longer have any idea to whom I’m talking.
