Ah, sometimes I feel guilty about not using the blog for Serious Purposes, but then I say to myself, Self, you are a grown woman and you can do what you _want_.
There should be no 'shoulds'.
Wait. There ought not to be any 'shoulds'.
Ach. 'Should' is such a dirty word. I should wash my mouth out with soap next time I use it.
Oh man..this was great. I gave up using "SHOULD" years ago, when I read that (according to 'research') it was the most GUILT PRODUCING word in the English language.
Yep..just cut it out of the dictionary...and after I read that..I almost always catch myself when I go to use it, and its a RED flag when someone else is trying to get me to do something THEY want me to do.
Cats the Pets = Good (unless they belong to my neighbour, as hers spray my car, basement windows and front door, and they have "exploding anal sacs" in which case, they should (see exception to 'should' rule) be sent packing to the great catnip patch in the sky
A Novel Woman, AKA Pamela Patchet, was unwittingly born and raised in Toronto instead of Paris. She worked her way from A&W carhop to political advisor to advertising executive where, on any given day, she was called upon to soothe disgruntled clients, cajole temperamental artists, juggle multi-million dollar budgets or locate trained penguins for television commercials. She married a handsome dentist for love and a lifetime of free dental care, raised three kids, and established a freelance writing career, not unlike her earlier jobs, minus the penguins.

Dear N.W.,
Oh, I love them both-- for very different reasons. Thanks for posting these-- shared them with another cat lover at work and we enjoyed them. *s*

Klasieprof, I agree and if I can summarize...
Should = Bad (some exceptions)
Chocolate = Good
Cats the Musical = Bad
Cats the Pets = Good

Are you sure those are cats and not strornry realistic-looking squeaky toys? [blink, blink]
But I do think the translation is accurate.
Janet, the translation is eerily accurate. I know. I speak Cat.
