All hail Tomato Nation!

I love Sars - this is one reason why, aside from the fact that the Girls Bike Club is pretty much the funniest thing EVER. Kudos to her for helping kids read.

Whaddup, dawg?

The famous, much-coveted Rudy. Best. Dog. Ever.

I am on the cusp, the cusp, I tell you, of finishing The Project. You won't hear from me until mid-May, unless The Project isn't finished by May 8, in which case you'll hear the screaming and the pulling-out-of-the-hair and the-losing-of-the-mind.

I just want it to be over. I've procrastinated because I'd rather be doing anything other than writing. I resent the fact that The Project is preventing me from going to the zoo with The Offspring, and keeping me from my beloved recliner, flanked by a glass of Shiraz and Anne Lamott.

Freakin' M.A. better be worth it.
