A Story
by Cat and Karenina

Once upon a time there was a girl who's hair was as pretty as the sunset. She worked in a cubicle under fluorescent lights. She had no dates but people like her cooking. She had a sister with fiery red hair who worked in a room with fluorescent lights. She had a boyfriend but she didn't bake so much. At least not cake. They both really liked the band named cake.

After work, the girl with the hair like sunset went home and made a dinner for one because she had no dates. And after work, the girl with the hair like fire went home and made dinner for one because her boyfriend lived miles and miles away. She also had a cat who had her dinner for 3. Both sisters ate their dinners alone and watched tv. They both liked to watch tv. One liked Alias and the other liked CSI. They both liked the Gilmore Girls. They were the G Girls.

The G Girls lived miles and miles and miles away from each other. Even more miles than the girl with hair like fire lived away from her boyfriend. They had a sister who lived in between all the miles who had hair like cornsilk. She made dinner for two. All the sisters liked tv and liked cats. But they weren't spinsters. The G Girls liked to e-mail and talk on the phone. They told stories about their wacky parents and wacky boys.

And The G Girls were three. The first with hair like sunset, the second with hair like fire, and the third with hair like cornsilk. And all three with eyes like a cloudless summer sky. They were girls, and liked many girl things. They liked kittens and pretty things to wear. They liked boys and kisses, and loved chocolate. The G Girls also liked many things previously not associated to girls and girl things. The one with hair like sunset liked comfy flannel pants instead of silk lingerie. The one with hair like fire liked tools, not baking supplies. And the one with hair like cornsilk liked to wield power,not find comfort under it. The G Girls were girls who were three were unlike all the girls before them.

The three G Girls were the cutest and sassiest girls in all the land. They got away with lots of things because the cute and sassy combination is just too hard to resist. They could be obnoxious and demanding, but in such a cute way that they always got what they wanted. One time there was stupid boy, named cuteboy, that refused to fall in love with the girl with the sunset hair. He had a magic potion that rendered him immune to all her many charms. Later, he was sorry because none of the other girls he met could compare the girl with sunset hair. He wished he had never heard of that magic potion.
