     As a matter of fact, that’s when  
I’ll also be convinced.                
     I made sure not to tell her any-  
thing about the Cat until after        
Johnson’s visit, Saturday afternoon.   
     Johnson? I’m also having a problem
trying to figure out what to call the  
guy, Johnson or Randy. It’s not that   
big a deal, but keep it in mind, in    
case I switch them around.             
     Confidentially, I like Randy      
better than that old stuffy Johnson    
guy.                                   
     Anyway, I didn't think it’d be a  
good idea to let my probation officer  
think I was crazy, or even just leaning
in that direction.                     
      Beth probably wouldn't let any-  
thing slip, but why even take the      
smallest chance, when I didn't have to.
     It was really hard to keep out of 
our conversations, especially Friday   
night. That’s when Beth and I went on  
our first Halloween patrol of the year.
     This year, we did the first two   
days alone, because my secret friends  
wouldn't be joining us until Sunday    
night. Not that Beth would notice the  
difference.                            
     I still had to do an online check,
but thankfully, Friday night itself was
quiet. Neither of us ran across any-   
thing out of the ordinary, and that’s  
always a good thing.                   
     Now I had to get through Saturday,
and thankfully Randy called early to   
tell me he'd be over by around two. He 
asked if it’d be ok if his family came 
along.                                 
     I asked Beth, and she was fine    
with it. I thought that's what he was  
going to do anyway, but obviously I was
wrong.                                 
     “I can't wait,” I told him, and we
clicked off.                           
     It was a little past two when he  
finally got here, bringing his wife,   
Wendy, and their two girls, Mary and   
Chrissy.                               
     Beth gave them the tour, and the  
girls loved it, especially when they   
got to the bunnies. While giving the   
tour, she always added little stories  
about how some of our babies got here. 
     Wendy couldn't stop smiling the   
whole time, “This is such a beautiful  
thing you're doing here.”              
     “It is,” Beth said and grabbed me 
by the arm, trying to pull me closer.
