This weekend — not that there are big plans — culminates into a get together at 11:00 PM Sunday night when a few of my friends and fellow fanatics of “The Venture Bros.” are getting together to watch the premiere of the third season.

Who would have believed that I would still have someone in my life after two years? Not me. Cameron, you have been an inspiration and a rock for me and I can’t think you enough for sticking around, especially since March. You know… coz of the ‘C’ word.

Love you!
