Kelli and I have been married two years today.
She’s been sicker than a dog the past few days (which in our house is saying something) but looks to be rebounding slowly. Darn winter cold/flu season anyway.

On another note, I think I was a bit too proud of the Red Hat Society piece. I left it up on top for a week because, honestly, I thought it was near genius. After a week, it seems barely clever. And nary a mention from either Susie Bright or Simon and Schuster. I didn’t expect Ariel Levy’s editor to get back to me but Susie’s answered an email before. Oh well, I still think she’s the bees-knees. She’s just a busy little sexpert.
And it’s not supposed to work the way I daydreamed anyway. I shouldn’t be “discovered” and given a huge advance because I’m so stinkin’ funny. I guess I should be working my butt off and polishing and editing and then whoring, whoring, whoring it to anyone who will read it.
For what it’s worth I’ve amassed a good 250 pages of stuff just in the blog. Tying things together (if possible) or expanding on one or two that could be folded together nicely would still yield a good amount of material. We’ll see where it goes.
Imagine me, a guy who thought he could write a little and decided to start a blog which forced me to write more often, in under a year I’ve got all these delusions of adequacy.
Oh well, dream big or why bother dreaming, huh?
More soon.
To everyone reading this: you rock. Of this I am sure.
Congrats on the reflection of your nuptuals!
ReplyDeleteI am working on writing a review of sorts for the Henry Rollins Experience.

ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to you two crazy kids! You know... about the red hat ladies... I wasn't thinking as dirty as you. I thought the red hat with the blue hair created the illusion of a purple dress. Oh hell, what do I know? You were propbably right.
