one May break from hibernation

I can't not go see the super brilliant author of my favorite book, making a rare public appearance (that would be Jeannette Walls, I also adore Felicia, whose memoir I can't wait to read, as well). Otherwise, save for BEA, In The Flesh, and May 29th's SMUT and a June 6th event I'm doing, I will (fingers crossed) be being a good girl instead of a slacker and will be just going to work, going to the gym and typing away for the next few months.
