I know I'm way too old to be a girl, and I've never attained the status of being a "lady." I think I'm much more of a "broad," "dame," or "female." Perhaps I shouldn't have watched all that film noir when I was growing up! I love how you linked Helen Reddy with Elsa the lioness. It's intriguing that in the cat kingdom, the male has the long tresses and the female is close-cropped to the skull. I guess they're divided into "Fabios" and "Sineads." This blog really entertained me (plus who can resist Petula Clark?)Stephanie Fhttp://twitter.com/SteffFinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7706911160818099781.post-1087303587174111002010-11-15T23:05:43.221-05:002010-11-15T23:05:43.221-05:00Lovin' Helen's macrame outfit.

I cringe even now when someone refers to me as a lady. (I've met a couple of people (men) who think it's their highest compliment. Ugh.)<br /><br />I didn't want to be no stinkin laydee. I wanted to be like Joy Adamson, living close to the natural world and a natural with the animals. Not sure how well I've succeeded in not being a lady or with being J.A., but let the record show that cats seem to like me.kmcdnhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09262828346312836429noreply@blogger.com
