So what did I do the past 2 hours while shoveling fajita chicken chowder, strawberry shortcake into my face and smoking too much, hrm?
Only fair you should be teary. Between revisiting ita's and Nilly's stories in your words (and, um, the others, but those particularly required kleenex,) it's all your fault my face will be a puffy mess tomorrow. Oh and the Catalina one too, but that's just me being self-centered.
Somewhere in the Pikesville store are copies on a table, I am assured. However, since they are crazed monkeys and I had to be home to shoot the cat, I couldn't hit every table. Luckily there was one misfiled (um, in the Rs) in the humor section. Oh & when you come here, if you want to hit places in addition to Atomic, they showed interest at that B&N and my ex-coworker's store way up the road.
I'm composing my pimping and outing email to friends now.
I know what my weekend plans are: go get the book!
Right now I am lying on the couch filled with ennui and panic.
Alrighty. Sent the announcement email off to a couple krav instructors. One's a TV producer, and the other one is in charge of MTV's online community.
Now to pimp to a couple friends and some family.
We got back about an hour or so ago from B&N with the book. I have read (or reread) most of it already. SO wonderfuly written, Dol! I am ordering a copy for my mom, so she can know about all my invisible friends. Also, I got thanked AND mentioned in it, so I am feeling way incredibly cool right now. And very lucky to know such a talented writer.
I am so very excited for Allyson! I'm glad I got to take her out for a dinner pre book, which I will now think of as the night before her celebrity started.
Busy busy busy day today... Noah is finishing his immunizations tomorrow. We got the "portable" oxgen tank and scheduled the delivery of the concentrator and the smaller over-the-shoulder oxygen. And Noah got circumcised.
Damn! Just typed and lost a post.
Let me sum up. Awesome book; I just finished it. It has so much heart, and so much vintage paperdol.
Seeing some of my first posts on my first day on the board made me blush nervously and feel like such a newbie, but reading the book made me feel so proud to be a part of the community.
One silly side note? The last paragraph on page 57 made me giggle a little. Heh.
My review? You rock.
Coffee:
And the writing rocks too. A lot. I will definitely enjoy pimping with impunity.
I sent out my pimpage and already was informed that's how one friend is spending part of her B&N gift cert.
So...Noah's having a cranky stinky day, huh? I was happy to share the news of his soon-to-be-homeness to the friend above. I can't wait for the first time you get to lie in bed and stare at him with no personel interruptions. Just a quiet moment. Well, unless he's talkative.
