Me = LOVE JAY!
I'm in the middle of your book and LOVING it!! I'm not at all pleased that I have so much to do and can't just completely blow it all off to finish it up! (It may be a late night if I can stay awake! That flight is killing me still!-- but so worth it!)
I received my book in the mail today and can't wait to start it!!
(I LOVE the T-shirts!!!)

The T shirs were amazing!! *coughs* I wish there's a contest for T shirts. *coughs* :)
And I SO want a TEAM JAY t-shirt! Awesome.
I can't believe how popular the TEAM JAY t-shirts are! I may have to work on that ;)
