Well, I guess, but only because you asked so nicely. Get some sleep Joshua; and I'll make a passing comment to Donna about the nice guy you are.

And I'd like to go on the record that things wouldn't be normal if I wasn't mocking you.

That's true, but would things be normal if I was sleeping at a decent hour? No.

Still, thank you.
