numbers, numbers, numbers, swirling through my head, lalalalalala.

i like the number 2. it sounds like "knee." or at least i think that it does. i might be wrong with the pronunciation. i usually am. oh well. i still like it. it's like, i have 2! what? you have knee? i know, i can see your knee retard!
