âAntoinette knew only a gnawing emotional hunger...irresistably [sic] driving her to seek dangerous satisfactions...â (Intimate Confessions 1, 1951). âStrong men, theyâd beg or steal anything, for ME! Theyâre like eager puppies! I should be happy, happy as a cat.â Are cats happy? Is that an expression? Iâve never heard it before. Now, Iâve heard âhappy as a pig in sh--â well, never mind that one. I do like the phrase âdangerous satisfactions,â though.
