Glad to hear it, Theopinocchio. Wallflower on.

Liese -- I kind of like Street Sense (Illinois connection) and Any Given Saturday (he was named for the Derby, wasn't he?) - plus also being named for a football movie, which reminds me of Friday Night Lights which I love.

Yesterday there was lots of racing on ESPN which I taped and they did a segment with Barbaro's brothers: Nicanor looks very lean and adolescent and the 2 week old baby is ADORABLE. I hope that they show it on the NBC coverage. Or maybe in the special tonight.

ugh, dealing with an annoying seemingly new to net communities person on a yahoo group. typing shutup shutup shutup would probably not be the best solution.

Hec, GF really enjoys the 33 1/3 series. She was even thinking of trying to submit an idea for a book at some point. Her obvious one would be Throwing Muses but I think someone's already pitched it. Anyway, cool on ya' for the book!

The weather is perfect today in NY. Utterly gorgeous.

FCBD update: The first comic book store I went to, the one around the block from where I live, had very few customers, they were sold out of Buffy, and they didn't let you pick which free comic book you got, you had to pick one at random. I keep wondering why they're still in business. You would think that after selling out the previous two issues of Buffy, they would know to order more by now. Anyway, I did get a copy of LSH, which will make its way to mac.

The second comic book store I went to had lots of customers, including lots of kids, and they had lots of Buffy issues on hand. I also got the back issues of Jeff Smith's Shazam that I needed. The let you choose which free comic book you got, and I got the Unseen Peanuts.

Still to do today:

• Dishes
• Fold Laundry
• File last month's bills
• Vacuum
• Go to Kentucky Derby party

We'll see how many of those will take priority over napping.

I also had Mexican food for lunch, so I got FCBD, Cinco de Mayo, and the Kentucky Derby all covered.

It is a cool series, and it's starting to get a bit more traction now that it's been out for a while. I think my book will stay in print longer in this series than the others did.

I do think somebody pitched Throwing Muses in the most recent round, but I'm not sure if it was selected.

It's pretty ridiculous. I forget that I always have the same problem with this weather-- what the hell to do with it.

walk around weather. We have been outside doing errands. Now a Justice League and homework break for mac while I wrap presents and do some job searching.

It's muggy and sprinkly here. Comic book boyfriend took me down to CAPE! which was fun. Picked up free books, got a Green Lantern sketch for Mr. Jane, was fawned over for a bit. I felt bad for the guys who had art out though with the aforementioned sprinklies. There was also some really cool original Judge Parker stuff too.

Now, I wait on the girls to come down so we can walk up the street and get our drink on before they head to the Gwen Stefani concert. I am undecided on whether or not I want to do that.

For now I think I'll flip through my new books and maybe do a bit of sewing.

Okay, so, I didn't die? Although I probably should have gone to the hospital when the fever got so bad that I lost feeling in my hands in feet, but hey. Not dead!
