Yes they cover the "poor me, I was adopted", and his relationship (or lack of with daughter) but the rest is about his creative genius.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-8810230999063368512015-10-27T20:25:01.375-04:002015-10-27T20:25:01.375-04:00Thanks for the kitty love:)Thanks for the kitty love:)(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-47598488068530434632015-10-27T15:48:34.046-04:002015-10-27T15:48:34.046-04:00Love your cats!

I will look forward to reading your thoughts on them, Diane. Not that I need more books to add to my wish list. :-)<br /><br />Your cats are so beautiful, Diane. My 15 year old cat fell in the bath with my daughter the other night and instead of scrambling to get out like he did before when it happened, he just stood there in the water looking up at me. I don't know if he was happy in there or silently begging me for help. I got him out right away, of course.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-48389925358073328732015-10-26T15:28:33.350-04:002015-10-26T15:28:33.350-04:00I think geniuses should get somewhat of a pass--th...I think geniuses should get somewhat of a pass--they do change the world, and that takes a certain personality, but they don't usually make good family members! I'm not sure I will see the movie, though I find Jobs interesting. If I did, it would actually be to see the Kate Winslett character.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to The Lake House--sorry to hear that it wasn't quite up to the mark but glad to hear it was still a good read.<br /><br />Cats rule!JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-86965283462814933142015-10-26T11:39:02.628-04:002015-10-26T11:39:02.628-04:00I had no idea Steve Jobs was being made into a mov...I had no idea Steve Jobs was being made into a movie!
