Hi Franzine. I saw Jeffrey Eugenides when he was in Toronto. (What a great reader, no?) As he was signing my copy of The Marriage Plot, I asked him if The Virgin Suicides was ever rejected. His answer?: "No. It was accepted right away." My answer to his answer?: "Blarg!" Yes, I actually made that noise.

At the very least, your life is never dull!

You would like reciprocation? Here goes:
I'm turning 30 next month. I've gained ten pounds this year. My two year old is potty training...and has been for the past month. My five year old chews me out if I leave her in the Kid Zone at the gym for more than 20 minutes, and I don't know how we're going to attack Kindergarten next year. Today is a beautiful fall day in Seattle. There's this huge crafty night at church on Friday...and I'm in charge. Today's project is to make sure I know how many of each craft have been ordered...and come up with shopping lists. OY.

And there you have it. Life in LoLo Lodge. ;-)
