Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, there's a newish person in my division, who I was sort of staring at in our meeting this morning, until I realized she looks like smonster!

It was honestly one of the loveliest and most thoughtful baby gifts we've received, and I got SO excited about reading all these great books with Rose. So cool.

Oh, what a lovely gift! How wonderful.

Oh Kate, that's so sweet! I just got "Now We Are Six" for my four-year-old cousin, and maybe I'll write something in it.

The Cubana at XOCO has defeated me. I had to take half of it back to work.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

That is wonderfully sweet, Kate.

I have been feeling sluggish, overly sleepy, and just off for a while. I had been blaming it on the asthma, but that is under control now and I still feel like blah. The lightbulb went on this morning and I called my oncologist to schedule a blood test to check my iron levels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We live in exciting times--there are now four different breeds of hairless cats:

The Cornish Rex and Devon Rex are also on this list. Senor Sock was a Devon Rex, and I took care of two Cornish Rexes for a while. Beautiful cats.
