I did yank. I did shove. And, yes I talked. — The best 3-word sentences and 4-word sentence I have ever read. That’s some brilliant writing right there. I’m positive. I lovd reading how you totally bonded with your maroon sweatshirt despite its awful color.

I love the way you read my essays! You always laugh at exactly what I hope people will laugh at and completely understand the spirit I intended. Thank you so much!

Wow! What a story. Personally, I’m a firm believer in the Five Second Rule (re dumpling sneaking at counter). But I get the panic! So glad you’re better. That nasty Covid sure didn’t affect your writing!
