Storm: unlike us?
Wolfe: yes
Wolfe: we take care of our elderly
Wolfe: don't we?
Storm: of course
Storm: at 70 my parents are doing well
Storm: they dont need assisted living

Storm: the sons too mind you
Wolfe: yeah yeah
Wolfe: but bahus are better

Storm: upto you

At which point, I believe he made up a fictitious meeting to get away from crazy car lady.

Also, can I just say, I have incredible hair volume. It could be from lying down all day. Goes very well with my gaunt ill face.

Dammit, I have to go to school tomorrow. I was getting used to this staying at home thing.
