What I Want
Yes, I’m thin now. It does not mean that I want marriage or a boyfriend. I also happen to be straight (heterosexual), so a woman’s advances would not be welcome. Oh, and I know I look better since I lost the weight so my standards are just as high. In other words, he’d better be damned good-looking or I won’t be interested. Don’t give me an old man when I could have a silver fox. Lesbians and bisexual women are considered rabble. So are ugly men.

Response to 'The Count of Monte Cristo' (Dumas)
There is one main question Alexandre Dumas asks the reader in the book: Are you rich, or is your life rich? Dumas even uses Edmond Dantes to illustrate this. At the beginning of the book, Edmond is poor, but he has his father, Mercedes, and a promotion in a company in which he works for someone who's like a second father to him. When he's rich, he doesn't feel himself enriched.

A Pagan Life
It was one of those sunsets where you could make out the shape of everything in the skyline. She sat there on her aunts' porch in her aunt Elizabeth's old rocking chair, sipping iced tea to commemorate the both of them. They were her Secondhand Lions great uncles when she needed them. She even inherited the house from them. Thank goodness there was no mortgage on the house. They'd paid for it outright, leaving Evelyn with only the monthly payments to take care of. Since she was an online journalist, it was easy enough for her to take care of that. They'd each married men who turned out to be not as savory as once thought, divorced them and made a decent sum on the bargain in both cases. They met back up and decided to buy the house together in case they ever needed each other. It had started out like Practical Magic, except there was just her, no sister. It was a cross between that and Secondhand Lions. Instead of a pig and some dogs and a lion, there were cats. She'd gotten real good at cleaning out a litter box. The rule was one cat per person, that way there was someone to clean out each litter box.
