I got one you would maybe like, it&amp;#39;s PINK! :) A big one, too. Might clash with your shirt, though. That polka-dotty one&amp;#39;s a stunner! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love your 38 answers. You are a witty one, dear Grace! Sorry about your needle incident, those 8 year olds are harsh! Hope you recover from the psychic wounds someday. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy New Year, if I don&amp;#39;t get back here to say that before it&amp;#39;s time! And hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
