Sure, yes, we'll keep her, whatever it takes to get this done! Meanwhile it's not like Jack's
been here, it's not like he
knows what a rebellious teen deer Lily's become in the absence of a strong father figure or really any supervision at all. (When's the last time anyone checked her homework?) It's not like he's caught her smoking Pall Malls behind the barn, or tasting her first whiskey at a stag-doe party. Yes, she's old enough to go to stag-doe parties, Jack! When are you going to realize Lily is growing up!

Proven her worth in venison steaks many times over as she's gained weight, more like.
Whew! I'm glad THAT loose end has finally been tied. I can now sleep better at night. Time for Tommie to rev up the London cab and get the heck out of Happiness Falls!
Hah! Blogger has an annoying habit of asking me if I want to leave the comments page without saving my changes. Usually, I have no changes to make and reflexively click right on by. Well, this time I did have some comments and, wouldn't you know it, they are now lost to us all.
Anyway, my point in somewhat condensed form is that I agree with Maggie's point: I don't think the deer is going to magically become a companion animal to traumatized horsies and other such creatures Jack may bring in from time to time.
Hasn't this storyline taken up most of the year? I'm dreading what new form of boring long-windedness Shulock is going to inflict on us now.
Wait a minute!! How come Tommie could bring Lily into the apartment before and can't now? Surely someone insane enough to bring a fawn into a city apartment wouldn't hesitate because the fawn is bigger and no longer has spots, right?
