Okay–my foot hurts–not that this is a reason for blogging instead of working on my list of book to-dos but I thought I’d mention it. My fasci-whatsis sprung a plantarr-somethingus and sitting at the table to type is just not as much fun as it usually is. Anyway, on my roster for today? I print… Read More

CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!

First of all–thank you. Your good wishes, your response to my last post was beautiful. There really are no words for that situation–you all made me feel like my words weren’t too lame.

Okay– it’s late and I’ve had a helluva day, but I haven’t forgotten my promise of pictures from Disneyland. They’re not downloaded yet–I did managed the sweater (hooray!) and I’ve asked Chicken if she would load some Disneyland pix tomorrow–I figure that she’ll have more time, and she’ll be on when there’s less internet traffic… Read More

Step 2: Right before the Grapevine, realize, “HOLY SHIT! We’ve… Read More

Attention everybody: I”m about to get locked into a mini-van for long stretches of time with two high school students, two pre-schoolers, and a surly mate. Should I actually be able to contact you with a cry for help, send motrin, ex-lax, diet-coke and percoset to an undisclosed location in the moral wilds of so-cal… Read More
