this little kitty is is so soft. and cute. every time i've moved all morning she's protested with this little half-purring gentle "mraeeeh" sound.

it occurred to me in the shower this morning to check for english translations of astrid lindgren's emil stories which i'm enjoying so much. they're all out of print but i found some used ones that were okay. i've sent one to perrin for his early march birthday.

this afternoon (after i get back from the post office where if i don't go i will stab myself with a pencil) i have to pick out some more children's books for presents. which is a vastly pleasant task. don't you love children's books?

Hmmm. I'm not sure where my copy of "Emil and the Detective" that my parents bought me in 1979 is. If I knew though, I'd send it to you.
