Happy birthday to Neil, Holly, and Spooky's sister, Stephanie! Also, happy forty-second birthday to Sesame Street, which first aired on this date in 1969! And I was there*. No, really. I watched the first episode the day it was broadcast. Yes, I am getting old. But Kermit's even older. And now he's even older. And now he's older still. Me, too. ( Read more... )

"Nifty," a word used all too infrequently these days.

It's a word I'm quite fond of. Very descriptive in it's shortness.

I have in my possession Two Worlds and In Between :):)

It is a VERY nice specimen; I also love the texture of the chapbook cover.

I've been admiring your furniture for years now; the chaise etc. What style is that? It's marvelous and I covet. Not that I can afford new [if only to me] furniture, but maybe some day....

Yes!

I also love the texture of the chapbook cover.

It certainly possesses one of the finest covers any of my many subpress chapbooks has ever had.

What style is that?

Sort of Neo-Victorian. It weighs a ton.

Is Confessions of a Five-Chambered Heart going to be another small book like Frog Toes and Tentacles?

I have octopus envy.

Nope. Pretty much the same sort of volume as The Ammonite Violin & Others.

I have octopus envy.

Don't we all.

Nemo fears the platypus.

Nemo needs to do the confidence course and to discover what the platypus fears.

I assure you, Herr Platypus is fearless.
