You don't think I'd stop with the parking spaces, do you?
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Also, you have to send me chocolate. (Or Graeter's....)
Not anymore...

Of course not. They're mere tokens of your megalomania.

I just need a Pinky to run around fetching garden hoses and live chickens and such.

When Julia gets her working papers, I'll send her your way.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I got to see a performance by Baxter Black yesterday evening. It was great fun, and I laughed so much that tears were running down my face.
I only mention it in this thread because of what happens afterwards. Baxter Black pre-signs the books he sells after the show, but he adds personal inscriptions, and the interesting thing is that he writes them upside-down and backwards so the customer can see it as he writes. It comes out really neat. I wonder how long it took him to develop the skill. I didn't get a chance to ask.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
(poking head in, because it occurs to me I hadn't shared this, and then back out)
So, it looks as if Andy Summers - guitar player for the Police - may be blurbing the Kinkaids. We got to talk at his Haight Street signing. His editor has offered to forward anything I send, and Andy wants to read.
So, there's that.
Back to work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
HMOG. Here's a conference erika should be at: [link] I mean, I'd like die to go, but you have to be admitted with a writing sample and NSM.
dcp, I can write upside down and also mirror-wise, and neither one was especially hard -- I could just kind of do it. I definitely get better with practice, but the basic principles are just there.
