Bahaha!! Awwww, Jahy...you always just crack me up...God I love you..You always make me laugh and give me warm fuzzies...don't ever change who you are!!!
And no worries...it has only been in the past year that I have learned some of the lingo too!! I had no clue what an ARC was for the longest time..I couldn't figure out why people were getting so excited about an ARC!! So there you have it..you are not alone...

Now that I think about it,... What does ARC stand for? I'm not going to say what I think it means... I made an ass out of myself once already.. I've hit my max.
