I'll be reading with Kim "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" Cooper and Scott "If You're Feeling Sinister" Plagenhoef at the Hammer Museum in LA tomorrow evening at 7 pm. It's free! The reading will include a video or two of Richard & Linda Thompson making music plus some audio comparisons of RT's music and a snippet of an interview. If you're in LA, please come! If you're not in LA, I think there's some cheap last-minute tickets available.

UPDATE: All gone.

Mom update: She had heart rate problems yesterday, but these seem to have resolved, and she's getting more energetic and ornery, albeit still with her eyes closed most of the time. Thank you, everyone!
Through this all, she managed to vote, so if you haven't already, and are USian, go vote!
