I just got back from the trip to Madison and (except for a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad thing that happened right after the Harlot finished her talk–we shall not speak of it here) I had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Stephanie is as funny and engaging in person as she is in her books, and I’m so glad I got to meet her.
Here she is, holding my SIP, rubbing it up against the traveling sock. Awesome.
This was very worth the trip…really enjoyed hearing The Harlot go on and on. She’s amazing. As for certain people who have a low tolerance for normal kid behavior – their loss. You have a couple of awesome boys and are a terrific mom. Go Jen! – from Barbara at RJs
P.S.I have 17 unique hats to deliver: 8 to Child & Family Agency in New London and 9 for the Bridgeport shelter. Thank you for knitting all those hats!
I’m very, VERY curious about this “horrible incident which shall not be spoken of”. I will bug you at the Lake.
I second Irene: youre a wonderful Mom. So there.
It was nice to meet you at RJ’s before the book talk – I’m wondering about Barbara’s comment about the “certain people who have a low tolerance for normal kid behavior” – there was a woman in front of me who SHUSHED me during the Harlot’s talk, so I would think she’s the same certain person! I “kinneared” her to put her on my blog, which I hope to update today. I thought your boys were great!
She was just jealous ;p
Come to think of it…so am I!
I want to see the Harlot!
;D
