Joel is totally the type to not like Edgar because he was Carrie's pet "with Oliver".
He'll probably get her a Samoyed for their first Christmas and become a stay at home dog Dad because he "knows and loves her so much yaknow" and definitely didn't stalk her online for ten years.
(I hope I'm correctly remembering that Carrie grew up with a Samoyed called Christmas).
I will admit that I arranged some of my holiday to the UK to fit around Carrie's book tour and to see her in Heathers. I'm from New Zealand. My boyfriend was not particularly impressed about being dragged to these events
I did meet Carrie at the signing and told her I'd come from NZ and watched her on YouTube for 7 years and she really did not care, so surely nothing has changed on that front for her?
