So cool to hear someone enjoying something I worked on. I will let the acquiring editor know, too. Scholarly books don't necessarily always elicit enjoyment -- it feels great to work on one that's both important *and* interesting. Really glad you like it.

Rachel Bo Bachel, My bosses were two New Yorkers who left their high level corporate jobs in city to move to CT and open up a big Ice-cream/restaurant. They lived together as well, but would never admit they were a gay couple. Anyway, I still can't listen to Kenny G to this day. Saw him recently on some awards show performance. He made no sense being there. And he still had the hair.

My apartment is on the top floor, so my cats are strictly indoor-only. They only catch indoor pests, such as the occasional housefly. It's impressive to see them leap and/or reach into the air to grab one. Never seen a cat do that before these two.

Voltron, when he was younger, would hunt files. He would get up on the highest point in the kitchen and howl and howl at them, and I swear it was as if it demoralized them. They would sink lower and lower and eventually land, and he would leap down and kill them.

He would also tear a stuffed eagle off of a toy and hold it under the water in the water dish, howling, until it was thoroughly drowned. The dog was not a fan of this activity.
