and instead of a hearty "ME TOOOO!" I am instead moved to pimp a book - Adam Rex's "The True Meaning of Smekday." One sentence in it made me want to use whiteout on the copy I'll be leaving around for Little S. and/or bribing her to read and/or sneaking in to her room and whispering to her at night, but otherwise, I am planning on leaving and bribing and sneaking and whispering. And, also, I personally liked the book a lot.
I come from Louisiana with a band-aid on my knee...
