        Wow, seriously?! Even though we haven’t used it in YEARS, it’s still very weird. I would love to login to our accounts one last time...

        lmao, neither do I. We both had so many screen names too. This is really weird, though. That was a huge part growing up for us, haha.

        I know, it became second nature to just sign online when you got home and do your routine. Definitely will be, even if we never use it now.
