1. That would be 143 days, 40 hours, 39 minutes and 59 seconds too long for my taste.

Actually 8 years too long... but who's counting? :shrug:

3. It hasn't reached the point where it DOESN'T sound like an eternity yet

Don't know when that will be...when we break 90 days? 60? The final month? Week?

But yeah...sometimes when I think about that "8 year" part I'm stunned and amazed that we all survived.

6. Many didn't.

Many more are left scarred beyond any chance of healing.

But they're not allowed to show the caskets on the news.

7. I'll be having the party of the century on that happy day.

Seriously. No expense will be spared! :party:
