That poem about the red dress is great! And good for you for holding the snake (and then using that as an excuse to shop)!

Umh. I think it’s extremely funny that you’re your own publisher–your link to your pub is actually a link to your website. I’m a little odd, I know.

And I’d disagree that the ranger disliked you. He wouldn’t have bought three copies of the same book and then let you carry his snake otherwise.

You are braver than me. I keep thinking about Indiana Jones. “Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?”

ROFL about the purse comment. I love the dress! The snake is absolutely perfect and a fantastic reminder of your visit for Elgin as well as your courage.

So Jay carried a BOX LOAD of Nora’s RITA statues to the hotel mailing center one year. Does that count? It was one of those years when she won 3 or 4.

Actually, funny story about that–She told him, “I’m shipping the girls home.”

Jay, clueless, said, “How old are they? Will they be okay?” He was sure it was a box full of puppies or something.

Good job on the rattler. Do it again and YOU can make the earrings!

He will forever be called Jay the Wuss unless he does something extremely he-manly in the presence of at least three romance writers outside of your chapter.

My most memorable run in..or runover as the case of a snake occurred while driving in in the vicinity of the Rattlesnake Capital of Alabama (yes, there is one). I spotted a rattlesnake stretched COMPLETELY across the two-lane blacktop. His head was off the asphalt on one side and his rattles on the other side.

He was unavoidable roadkill that day.

Oh. Gee.

Yikes!!

You deserve it… (the dress, the shoes, a purse, earings, bracelet),
everything ….a full matching outfit.

What a lovely dress…Cool!
