Not that I could even rationalize it for myself-- the temps have been in the mid to high 70s and even the 80s since you left here. :)marta chauséehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220377163454979720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3454863234582828637.post-13916824362638206152013-03-02T11:30:47.420-08:002013-03-02T11:30:47.420-08:00Thanks for this, Marta.

Like you, I have many new friends, thanks to the literary festival. I went on to the Puerto Vallarta conference where I spent time with Jim Callan, Doug Danielson and...Bille Johnson herself! She's lovely (as are all the Oak Tree people I've met so far).

I tried to keep it strictly PG, if not entirely G rated!<br /><br />I didn't know that about Liz, but I can imagine she and Richard could get pretty blue collar nasty-- especially when drinking.<br /><br />Glad you are going to forgive me!marta chauséehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220377163454979720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3454863234582828637.post-31801510215330294542013-02-27T08:32:25.887-08:002013-02-27T08:32:25.887-08:00I have always really liked you and now I know why....<br />I have always really liked you and now I know why. Thank you for understanding. I am looking forward to your book. If you use a few words I don't use, I'll accept them as part of the character. I'm not all that small but you are too lovely to end up like Elizabeth Taylor, who had such a potty mouth. I knew her years ago in my Theatre days. Her publicity agent at MGM was my best friend's mother.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3454863234582828637.post-37872054805972183652013-02-27T08:30:18.968-08:002013-02-27T08:30:18.968-08:00I'm sorry I offended you, Aileen.

I was poking fun of an expression common in and around the Boston area, or so I've heard. I promise not to plunge into the depths of any toilet talk in the future.
