I love yours, too! Your entries are so fun and real-sounding. Checks for blogging would be nice, but I'd settle for a book contract. Then I can at least say that blogging is a form of promotion as well as procrastination. Now it's only the latter... Thanks, Sandi. I love yours, too! Your entries are so fun and real-sounding.

"Goal" is one of those words that makes part of my brain go to sleep. Caryn, you write one of the funniest blogs in the world. People should send you checks just for your blog entries! And bloglily, I would buy any pharma from you ANYTIME! I am horrified to hear that my spam filter wouldn't let you in! Please, please try again. (I didn't even know I have one, since it's certainly letting me get plenty of offers to have my penis enlarged!) Sheeesh.

The blog writing is great too, especially given how educational it is (who knew that life lived backwards would end that way? not me...) By the way, I e-mailed you and my e-mail came back, dinged for being too spam-like. What? You don't want to buy pharma from me? xo, L The novel writing is good!!

Sometimes it seems like there's so much more urgent stuff to concentrate on. Oh, and the Woody Allen quote was hilarious! He's got a good point.

He's serious about whatever it is being a good goal and supportive and all that, but we've also noticed that the idea is then officially dead in the water.
