I'm very glad I got to meet her out here in this bloggy world, and I can't wait to get her book... <br /><br />I had a post about first kisses a while back. Mine wasn't so magical, but since I'm friends w/the guy, now it's HILARIOUS. We were preteens... <br /><br />I like the idea of making it magical.
