the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Helicopter hovering outside for the past ten minutes so close I can barely hear myself think: Dog does not even look up from the paw she's grooming.

Heh. The other night, The Boy's cat was napping sprawled out on the kitchen table, half on top of his cell phone.

(You MUST know what comes next....)

So we called his cell phone to see what the cat would do. We expected that she'd at least sit up, if not run away.

No, not this weird-ass cat. She did NOTHING except flick one ear, as if to say, "Doesn't sound like The Human is coming to answer this, so I'll just keep napping."

Even the dogs looked at each other like, "Does Cat #3 *know* that the small device is singing under its belly?" Weird freaking cat.

Is the cat deaf?

I'm not Kristen, but I play her on the internet. Seriously, I can't seem to log her out.

She confused the Bronze and here which makes me giggle.

Um, is she the physicist's girlfriend? the one who wrote a buffy book?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Correct, Kat.

Is the cat deaf?

I don't think so. Besides, since she was lying on the phone, she would have felt it when it rang. She's just a weirdo.

Right ON!!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Excellent review!

Great review! I love that she sees how Allyson bucks the stereotypes.

However, I am put out by the fact that she calls the Nilly essay "the weakest." Clearly she has no magic in her heart. I will give her props for then following the criticism with a huge compliment to A's engaging writing voice, however.

Also this.
