I look at my posts now and they look so clean. So pure. It's freeing for them, too. I hope I can stay clean with this one. It was a tough night for both of us.
I think I need to go through this smilie rehabilitation program

I feel as though I used them a great deal - in fact - when I'm writing e-mails and/or chatting on AIM or something - I feel lost and naked without them...

Like, Oh no - I'm being sarcastic - but how can I portray that without

Seriously - I'll be writing an e-mail to my sister and randomly I'll type And then think...wtf..she can't see an actual shruggin smilie in the e-mail...

I need help
