Kirsten, I'm not sure, but I don't think Karen would include"pics", as I believe everyone know what that means.

Still, there are a few abbrevations I don't know, but mostly I can understand the meaning anyway - or guess the meaning.

However, it's always a good idea to make an effort, concerning spelling. The REAL world demand it!

When I first joined, I couldn't understand much of what Cinder & Smoke wrote, but I do now, and I think it's very entertaining!
