I fantasized repeatedly about us being bff's when she was alive, but I fear I would have only embarrassed us both if we'd actually met. Am planning to stalk her in heaven though. I heard nothing can go wrong there. Looking forward to your book, my uber-funny friend! injaynesworldhttp://injaynesworld.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064585589281123688.post-53203482186930496972013-07-28T06:40:55.446-07:002013-07-28T06:40:55.446-07:00Indigo - as Vixen says, no one likes a quitter!

Only YOU could write an entire post about a book that smells and make it SO amusing. <br /><br />Remember, you have to finish all of your antibiotics.
