I love reading these. No stuffed animals? The entire other side of my bed is full of 'em, including rag dolls of Harry and Hermione I bought in NY (Ron seems to have mysteriously disappeared). And I hate diet coke with a fiery passion. The Devil's Drink! Muah.

*hugs*

Ah. now I never said I didn't own any stuffed animals, I said I didn't sleep with them. :) I was a real sucker for Garfield and Tigger and that is still evidenced by the number of them to be found around my living spaces. (If I sound dead uppity, I'm in essay-writing mode and am using complicated language in order to impress the tutor dude).

And I'm sure that Diet Coke is the Devil's Drink, but I'm woefully addicted to the stuff and you know, I don't even mind. Hell, I enjoy it. is it Diet you despise or all Coke products?

Stay lucky,

Clare.

Oh, I am a Coke fiend. My mother says I have Coke running through my veins. Give me leaded anyday! I don't call it the nectar of the Gods for nothing...
