Somebody remind me to do this though, or I'll forget. Those dates are like so far in the future, man.

Well, you know, the way to a woman's heart is through her stom... wait. That's not how it goes!


ps: this reminds me, I read somewhere that the smell of cinnamon is supposed to have aphrodisiac qualities on men. You'd think some perfume marketer would be taking advantage of that...
