Kim has a hairless cat that looks like an old man with a wrinkled neck.
“Euuww, it’s bald.” I observed, when I first saw it.
“It’s hypoallergenic.” she says.
“I read that it’s the cat’s saliva, from grooming - not the fur that people are allergic to.” I instruct.
“What if you were allergic to your boyfriend's saliva?!” she wonders.
“Dang, that means a rash ALL OVER, I suppose!”
We noddingly agree.
a typical Saturday morning conversation
I've got a rash on my hand and wrist
Right where my little mouse doth sit
Does anyone know where I can find
A hypoallergenic mouse of any kind
(Just Joshing..I need something
funny to think about..)
