Heeeheeh, Katy has a facial expression that looks exactly like she's giving 
people the finger.  She's used it when people are too clueless to get out of 
our way and she's impatient to get moving.

Of course, she subjects me to it, too.  One of Katy's favorite activities 
lately is to come as soon as I call her and then dropping her largest most 
jagged Nylabone on my foot, with that same expression on her face the whole 
time.


Hey, guess what! guess what! guess what! Aww crap, I forgot!
