My cat chirps to me all the time! Sometimes we'll get a little conversation going, though I've no idea what we are talking about. I'm usually telling her how beautiful she is; and I imagine she is saying, "But of course I am.">

>It's funny, I really don't care for my local library. The folks who work in it don't appear to be very enuthusiastic about books and I'm disappointed when I can't even get small talk started about a book I am checking out or returning. They're too busy, I suppose. I bet we'd have a heck of a reading room with our collections put together.
I'll happily forego my library for a trip to a bookstore and spend what feels like hours poring over the stacks there.
Borders started a frequent buyer program which might actually curtail my Amazon spending. It's pretty nice to have a latte in one hand and a book to peruse in the other.> I can hardly wait -- I'll even start memorizing again: "in an old house in Paris..."
