Friday the Thirteenth comes on a Monday this month.

And I've fallen off the face of the world due to a late-blooming The Sims addiction.

Work is still happening, but more of my brain than ought to be is concerned with the burgeoning friendship between Napoleon Solo and Charlotte Brontë.

I also want to move in a houseful of Girl Detectives. I've got Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden. Any others y'all can think of?

Sue Barton! She was a nurse too, but the books were a lot less formulaic than the later Cherry Ameses.

Judy Bolton is good too, though I never did understand why she only married a more formal kind of detective rather than becoming one.

I also have a soft spot for the Dana Girls -- they were sisters, but again, less sticky-icky formulaic than the Bobbsey Twins.

The Dana Girls!

Can you remember their given names? I could remember that they were sisters, and I could remember that the name Dana was attached to them somehow (although I couldn't remember whether it was their surname or that of their creator), and I remember that I liked them, but the rest is lost in the mists of time.

Louise and Jean. I would *never* have remembered this on my own.
