I love it when other people have babies. I can admire them, and then give them back... ;-)
Exactly. Everyone keeps saying 'Aren't you getting broody?', to which I reply (with perfect honesty): 'No!' :) (Mind you, I'd definitely recommend getting one of your own at some point. They keep things interesting.)

I'm sorry to hear about Spike.
Thank you. I still remember writing an LJ post about him when we first got him...
