    LOLOL! I'm awaiting new glasses so we'll see if that helps cure my ability to typo freely. Somehow I think I'll stay the same, with or without the glasses.
    Spooky came to us as a foundling and took over our house. It was only later that we realized that the wild eyed baby with the huge head and tiny body was actually a Maine Coon cat, very intelligent, very well-behaved and the best of all animal worlds. Yes, I'm definitely owned. :-p
