Well now you've just told the story of me at 19! Minus the frat component. It's my mother's story, too. Hopefully it's not my newly 19-year-old daughter's....
Maybe lame excuses, Donna, but I still got a great charge out of your "Write or Die - NaNoWriMo Vignette #5". Very amusing. By the way, was that a slick...

I should find a good scone bakery. Chado Tea Room in Pasadena makes some pretty awesome scones, but Chado is currently outside of my budget. I would love to...
Behind the rice, you say? What kind of rice, brown, wild, etc? In a box or in a bag? Five pound or less? I want one, too. Just too cute for words. Mary...

No, Donna, I have not. Had I actually fallen for your nefarious plot, I would have been sinking many dollars of hard cash into purchases ranging from afghans...

The alien that looks like a gummybear has been my long wished for dream. Do you suppose the creature came from Sri Lankan with the rice? Even Dear Santa...
I like the idea, Mary, of the gummy bear alien arriving in a 25-pound sack of Sri Lankan basmati rice. Too bad that I didn't consult with you before writing...
