Two reasons I love you that you may not have realized:
1) partly due to your relationship with your cat, and encouragement as I got to know the cat that adopted me, I have become a cat person. I even got adopted by a new cat this year, who is such a neat little guy and clearly loves me with his whole furry self. I think this is due, in no small part, to the role model you provided in respect and love for cats. Someday soon, I will post proper pictures (Cat does not mind, I checked)
2) I love your namesake, now that I know her. I love several extraordinary books, and many very very good authors; all due to your suggestions and recommendations over the years. I'm about to move again, have I told you that? I found out Wednesday. I'm hoping for a gentler work-life balance that will let me read again properly. For now, my husband reads voraciously for both of us, and he's discovered your recommendations too, sometimes rereading them appreciatively.
I owe you a great deal, truly. Much love, my friend.
