OK, Bridget, I Get the Hint...

Bridget loves to read and goes through books quicker than we can keep up.  Here is what I found in my inbox today...

My Dearest Mum,

You must want me to get the most proper education I can receive. One of the most important ways I can get that, is to read. I would be delighted to get a proper education. So I would be delighted to read. But the problem is: I don't have any books. I would be delighted to get some books at the library, but it's simply too long to walk, and I certainly cannot drive any vehicle under any circumstances, unless it's a bumper car at Bay Beach. So I would be delighted if you would drive me to the library on Monday, the 12th of July, 2010, precisely anytime after 12:00 pm. This is the only way, my Dear Mum, that I can receive the most proper education. So I beg of you to take me to the wonderful place called the library. Until then, I shall weep to my heart's content, (whatever that means) and wait until my lovely books have arrived in my loving arms.


Thank you, my dearest, and only, Mum.


Yours until death, (which I feel may be coming very soon if I do not get my hands on a book),


~Bridget~
