No good title

I told Hal that L wasn't feeling in top form due to the whole losing pet boy and his answer was to take her shopping. First stop was World Market for dark chocolate, pomegranate Italian soda, and raspberry chipotle sauce. Next was Petsmart to get a wonderwomen collar for Alice and a neon green one for Shadow. Then it was dining on green and black pitted olives soaked in olive oil and the raspberry chipotle creamcheese concoction with crackers. We were suppose to eat linguine with cabernet sauce but we never made it that far. We washed it down with metro mint water which we have decided to start making ourselves. Nothing but water and mint. Everyone except for Kelly is giving up soda, (unless it is Italian soda which is just too wonderful not to imbibe on occasion).
L stopped drinking caffeine a few days ago and her skin is glowing, crystal clear so I decided to follow suit. We will get our caffeine the way God intends us to, (by eating chocolate). Yeah right lets see how long I last without a cup of coffee. I'll be flopping on the floor any minute, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Alice entered our lives when the church cat had kittens, but that is not the story that we told Kelly. We inherited shadow when our neighbor passed away in October. He is a giant black cat that is sweet as can be. I still can't believe that no relatives were willing to take him after Mr. Bryce died. Sad sad sad, boo to them. People that leave their estates to their pets are not so crazy after all.
