Just imagine that she's me and there's something you wanna know but I don't wanna talk about it. What would you do?

You want me to beat it out of her?

I know I am going to miss the heels because they do something for my posture. And I'm suddenly very aware and proud of my breasts.

Eric Matthews

Funny, so am I.
