Snarl, grumble, snap, sneer.... her next book's out.  Now
I've got to find it for Keely in the next 24 hours or else
tis the couch for me!!! (At least I won't have her bitching
about me stealing the sheets!)

Barnes & Noble in Columbus says that they're not supposed to
get it in the store until 10/1.

I really just want to know how long I screamed "MORE, MORE".
