Thanks! I will go back and massage the Alfalfa line a little. Oh and the best friends question...
From Chapter 3:
Lois’s back straightened indignantly. “Because *I* am…” she started. Then catching herself, she cleared her throat and continued, “…a friend of hers. One of her best friends, in fact, and I happen to like her music.” She frowned, not entirely satisfied with the way the exchange was going.
(I had to go back and make sure I hadn't imagined it myself!)
