This is ridiculous, but I saw a chipmunk the other day, and was totally like, "HEY! It looks JUST LIKE a chipmunk!! Right there!"
But not for a pet.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The spitting is called self-anointing. It's a marking thing.

You don't need a pet hedgehog! I can't believe I have to be the voice of reason on this! Where's Jilli?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm sorry, you expect Jilli to be the voice of reason?

I KNOW I don't need one. I'm just charmed by the idea. Fergawdsake, I'm already hostage to my almost 19 year old diabetic cat for nearly a decade. So not taking on more drama.

She would advocate for a devilhedgehog.
Yes, I edited just to add color. I am capricious like that.

Doesn't this sound vaguely Catholic?

Anyone else watching the Tour de France?
Anyone else really rooting for Thomas Voeckler to hold on to the yellow jersey?

It's in her name! But okay, yeah, on reflection, probably not a good call in this case.
You cannot have a pet hedgehog, sara!

They froth at the mouth and spread it all over their quills.
Rest assured people, I am not getting a hedgehog. I just wish I could. But a) cats + hedgehog = bad idea and b) they have short lives and I am already seeing some sad in my near future, not going to invite more (holy SHIT, Devi is 14! And she's my healthy old cat.)
