Absolutely not. I am a therapy dog handler and on nearly every visit someone says that my dog likes to be pet. Gratess on my ears but of course I have to be nice and not say anything. (They are not wrong in general, only grammatically.)

Still no updates on my FB account . . . Just me sitting here in the dark until whenever, I guess.

Hi Ronny -- I was just telling someone how lovely it was to see you when you came to play in Wisconsin. Such a kind and gracious man you are. 🙂

My goodness, I nearly forgot that today marks THIRTY YEARS that I've been in business! What a long strange trip it's been. Thanks to everyone who's cheered and supported me along the way: family, friends, clients, edibuddies, all the fine folks at U of Chicago Press . . . here's to thirty more!

Just me and five of my six besties! What a wonderful weekend. I'm so refreshed and energized in the presence of these amazing women (and Adrienne Montgomerie who joined us remotely). We've gotten a lot done. Tonight's agenda: a big home-cooked pasta dinner and then creative fun! #QuadCommaCon
