It is just such a shame that Carl doesn't like boys that way. Because she would be just perfect for Joe.But that's life, eh?
And the flashbacks just confirmed my dislike for materialistic Brenda. Can you let Joe read it so he can see it too ;-)Author's response

Thanks for your constant reviewing, dudette!Canine Cupid

Ug, I feel really awkward... which is what you were most definately trying to get across because that's how Joe had to be feeling in that situation. I mean, that's just not normally something you deal with on a normal basis.
The heels thing (didn't copy the quote, so I'm probably not getting it exactly right here) about them being hazardus to one's ankles... I laughed at that. I'm always falling or twisting my ankles in heels... but that never stops me anyway... OMG, I'm as bad as Brenda!!! Ok, think about something else...
I have to agree with riaryder in the fact that it really is such a shame that Carl doesn't like boys... but everyone has prefrences I suppose.
You always write humor so well, but your serious chapters always draw me in just as much. :)Author's response
Well, just because Carl doesn't see the use of wearing heels doesn't mean there isn't one. ;)
Yes. Besides I don't know if Carl could fall in love with silly Joe even if she did like boys... And could Joe fall in love with Caroline? I don't know. Thank you, digging the reassurance I get from you. :)Canine Cupid

haha i loved this chapter. and i love beagles. i'll tell you what my sister's did last night. i was going on a date and he came to pick me up. my dog was hiding behind the couch lol but my sister's was standing at the door. right when i opened it and my date was there duke (the dog) started barking like crazy at kyle (the dude). he started growling and everything. it was hilarious. turns out i guess duke will be my date decider. i didnt have a good time, to say the least. it was awkward like crazy. ok enough about my life now lol i just wanted to point out that beagles are awesome and have good tastes in boys. :] nice chappie post some more quick.Author's response
Duke sounds like a bad boyfriend-detector. Definitely a keeper. And come on... what do you need dates for when you got ficwad... ;)
Thanks for the little anecdote.Canine Cupid

so, i'm printing out 13 right now. do you have any idea how hard it is to keep up with you? your writing puts me into this crazy frenzy. i'm strange. phew...
anyway. i like the flashbacks that carl has about brenda. it shows the differences between the girls, and i think that's a necessity to the story, to understand carl and ir develops brendas character. who i have really decided that i don't like.
i think carl is an amazing person. she isn't holding anything against joe, and she knows that her and brenda probably wouldn't have worked out. she's totally self-less and that's really admirable.
well. i'm going to go read the next chapter.
i miss you!Canine Cupid

The CDs and DVDs that just proved that they had two completely different tastes when it came to music and films, but Caroline had been willing to give each single one of them a try. I badly related to this because I've done that.....
/If you became addicted to something you became vulnerable.
/ Say it with me: Amen. lol
I love the present and past flash backs through this chapter two, they flow so smoothly and are absolutley essential to the process that Carl is going through....We never really had an insight to their relationship, this was perfect...
Dax trod into the living room and wagged his tail upon spying his temporary distributor of food and caresses sitting on the couch, Ha! I feel like that with Pheebs....
The short tour had been just what the doctor ordered. It had allowed him to transform his anger and frustration into physical energy. This was superb. A way to dodge writing about anger and all that 'emo' stuff...hahahaha
I liked how this chapter ended, it kinda felt like when you've been holding your breath for ages and all the pressure gets forced into your head, and then you just let it out.....wait....that's cos that's what I was doing....Silly dork....Author's response
Thank you very much for this lengthy review. I was hoping you'd give me your okay on the whole interpersonal business that's been going on in this story. I can't say I'm familiar with all the situations in here, but some where written from my own experience. I hang out with Trohseph a lot, ya know...Canine Cupid
