Yeah YOU WERE the first person I thought of when I bought some hearts. I only spent 15 dollars, all I could afford. I have one left! Hmmm, still waiting for a final candidate!

someone to buy another person a star. Used to be that way. My first star was donated to me, and after that I would buy my own. I have bought a star for people in the past. I wonder when that changed?

Whether or not you have a star is figured into the getting on a jury thing. It's only fair that contributors get a better chance to get on a jury.

People who cannot afford a star should not be deprived of the ability to participate fully in the community, especially if they have motivated someone else to gift them a star. JMO

I would keep one for myself, than I thought, lets play this honestly and see what happens. I have not kept any of the hearts I have bought, given them all way. Feels good to make someone else happy rather than bump up my own heart rating.

I also have a few upcoming trips that I need to deal with, so can't really do so.

Just friends, a niece, a nephew (all of whom are below 8).

I currently do not have any one to spoil...
But I do try to accumulate and hone skills to do so.

Well, I am taking a friend ice skating, dinner and perhaps other things, but we don't see each other that way.

Hope you have a great weekend.

I just, have too much going on at the moment.
I have two out of country weddings that I am going to. Kinda makes it hard to deal with much else at the moment.
