If I only had a brain...

Lovely. One nit:

at the moment, they share their rambling Victorian house with thirteen of them.

The first "they" in this bit is Deb and Nic; the second "them" is cats.

At the moment, they share their rambling Victorian with thirteen felines. (Or "cats" if felines is too highfalutin'.)

Oh, and you've got "history history".

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I love it. I caught the history history as well, but my other question was, is the comma necessary in "writing, to really learn how to cook."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Brava! I want to know this woman. Depth and breadth and humor and brains, you betcha!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

(off to fix typos)

Sorry - I drove down to San Jose to feed the ferals in a blinding rainstorm, because Nic's sick.

After I fix the typos? I'm going to eat a really large piece of grilled meat.

edit: comma removed, double history now single history, and "thirteen of them" has become "thirteen of the feline persuasion."

What Beverly said.

Also, lots of 'go you!' and 'you can do it!' to the word-counters (the initials are a bit too complicated for me). It's Anne, Deena, Liese, Betsy, amych, Suela, erika, Theodosia and whom else did I miss? t /doesn't-really-have-anything-to-say lurker

I HAVE A BOOK!

Fed Ex just walked up the stairs and handed me a pre-mass copy of "Weaver" and it's fucking GORGEOUS!

(doing the happy dance)

Ten years, people. Forgot how cool it is to handle that first copy.

Always Anti-fascist!

So, you're saying you never forget the first time you touch it? Go You! And thanks, Nilly. But I stalled and watched coffinsex today. I feel guilty.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Terrific, Deb. YAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!
