Carnival has arrived! So far, it's quite good...and I'm only on the second song.

We're expecting a a high in the upper 70's today and back to the 50's tomorrow. It's a windy day though, with higher winds expected later.
After I pay estimated taxes and a few other items, I'll be poor again.
Quote from: bk on April 04, 2011, 10:43:41 AMSaturday, I posted the cover of the new book - some liked the font, some didn't and found part of it hard to read. The font was the same as Murder at the Hollywood Historical Society, and so I was not concerned with readability really. But interestingly, I think it was JohnG that said that he really liked the cover AND the font because he felt it had a fun 30s mystery feel to it. That comment made complete sense to me and that's the comment that caused me to rethink the font, because while the font was really appropriate for Hollywood Historical Society, which had to do with a group of older folks preserving Hollywood's classic history, this book is not that - so I talked to Grant about that and that made sense to him, too, and he just sent me the new version and it's really great, I think. So, thanks to all for the feedback and I'm pleased as punch with this.I really like the new font, BK. When do you expect to start taking orders??

The bird has decided he does not like La Merm in "Gypsy." He shrieks, but only during her numbers. He did not do this with Tyne Daly yesterday. I think we're going to need to have a little talk.
I just found out that a friend of mine -- the one who always came and helped with medical stuff for the foster kitties over the years -- was found deceased in her home. She had been ill for quite some time.
Yes. Her mom found her.
