0 This morning, I woke up to the barking of my neighbor's dog...again. (Can I emphasize 'again' like this?) It was the third time in a row since they brought back the annoying dog. Today, like any other day, I'm going to the river for a run, enjoying the tranquility offered by this new community that I've just been part of for less than 2 months. After the exercise, I plan to rent a movie or two and stay in. At night, I'll probably stop by Nancy's to see how she is doing. She's been studying hard for her upcoming finals. I guess she can use some break. Maybe I should bring her some spaghetti if I decide to make it for dinner. Oh yeah! Did I tell you I just got myself a new Ipod? I ordered it just two days ago and I was so happy to see the delivery guy at my door this morning. He got a huge package. I meant the parcel for the Ipod was big 05 0 00 . OK. It's running time! 02 br

00 By the way, does changing 'got' to 'had carried' still retain the double meaning (the guy had a big or bulging 'member'?) 02 br

0 Possible - same with "got". If you think it is likely to be interpreted in that way, re-write the sentence. What I loath is the constant use of "got", and in this sentence it is incorrect since he is 01 b 00 delivering 02 b 00 a parcel. 0-

0 It thought it was a common joke "he got a huge package" which is why I included in the passage to lighten it up. I guess you don't find it funny, maybe it's because it doesn't fit in or out of place. Thanks for your corrections, Feebs! 0-
