Yeah. You and Selma. Always though you were a package deal. Never really thought about the two of you apart, cuz, well, uh, geez, just never thought about it. Not just a guy thing, just a 'Well, of course, Havi and Selma, why not' thing. You know, like when someone points out the picture from college and asks who the guy with underwear on his head was and you go, 'That was just Bill being Bill' cuz you know that Bill just did stuff and if he didn't he wouldn't be Bill anymore, just this guy you went to college with and that would have been boring. Anyway, it's kinda like that. Of course you and Selma." Or something like that. Just keep being you and never listen to the people who tell you to grow up. A lot of them are bitter that being a grownup isn't as much fun as they thought. Your Right People love you just as you are. Have a wonderful day and thanks for bringing a smile to the party today... :^) Since I seem to be the first guy to respond I get to claim priority in saying, “Ummm… Yeah. You and Selma.

I think it's really cute, and I really did think it was a strategic thing the first time I saw your picture. But then you know, we hear you talk about her like a friend, so we get it. ;) I really enjoyed the idea of walking the dog, without the dog. You're always full of great ideas!
