Finally - an entry that's not about not writing
What an opportune day to get published somewhere. Check me out, right below the fabulous Caren Lissner. I'm in good company over at Black List. Black Table isn't the Paris Review, of course, but I'm always thrilled and amazed that they'll print my blurbs nevertheless. I'll have to remember to throw some gratuitous praise in the general direction of Will Leitch tonight at the reading.
Oh, yeah, did I mention my reading yet? All the information you'll need is right here. Note that although the start time is 7, I don't go on until 9:45, which gives you plenty of time to hang out with me and see all the other stuff, or it gives you advance notice to show up later if you're only there to see me (which I highly discourage). In any case, if you come, please say hello. I'm the really tall girl with the short hair and bare shoulders who will most likely be curled up in a ball in the corner, quivering from stage fright. Come pet me and soothe my nerves.
As is becoming the tradition at readings, I had hoped to have cookies for you all tonight, but hot and humid weather does not make for good cookies. (My roommate thought they tasted okay, but agreed that they weren't exactly attractive.) The next time I'm reading will most likely be in mid-September, and hopefully things will have cooled off enough for me to do my annual Baking Day immediately prior.

Nice Black Table entry. I prefer my paper towel method of bug disposal. (With a vacuum, you miss that satisfying CRUNCH.)

See, Daryl, your sadistic glee at crunching the bugs is the reason I used to call you to come over and kill them for me. :)
