enough

After being on the verge of sickness for over a week, I'm officially achy and head-achy...a sitution not improved by the bawling baby in the building next to ours (which I swear they prop up against the open window so as to project the sound--along with the sound of the dogs that inevitably start barking because of the crying--to the whole neighborhood.) I'm just lying in bed all day watching Drop Dead Diva, loving Mouse for bringing me soup, and still taking care of Gold Line issues via email.

So annoyed that getting Heather's chapbook to the public for purchase is this frigging difficult, and our press/distributor is not helping at all. Spent the whole day getting that dealt with, plus driving Jilly to the airport and getting Jeff's site live.

poetry for everyone

Today we met to send out all the copies of Heather's winning chapbook, Memory Future. I'm really proud of her.

busy busy work and friends

Started the day by meeting the Gold Line Press staff at school and stuffing/labeling envelopes full of Heather's new chapbook. Ended the day on quite the fun note with (MRB's home town friend) Sarah Engles who was visiting from South Bend, and we all went to the as-always lovely Getty Center and the Venice Boardwalk.
