My first column ran today!
Nothing quite like seeing your name misspelled in boldface newsprint. Puts ya right back in your place. Perfect!

About Me
- That girl from Shallotte
- I am deathly afraid of frogs. The word "hamster" makes me laugh. I once saw a miniature horse pulling a cart with a dog in it down my residential street. I grew up in a sleepy beach town on the N.C. coast pronounced, against all linguistic rules, "Shuh-loat," I got carded once at a club and the bouncer informed me that the DMV had misspelled "Charlotte" on my license.

Well, at least they spelled it right the second time... and that's a great picture!! You look good.

I don't marry just anyone y'know - only newspaper columnists ;-)
You are fully vindicated and will soon be syndicated!
Excellent...
the plan for world domination has started. *rubs hands in anticipation*
Congrats!
Zube (the younger)
OMG, that photo of you made me do the 'wave my hand in front of my face' laugh as though I was sitting there with you laughing at something, telling you to stop for I feared peeing my pants. You are adorable!
Also, I love that column. Tell me, do your parents save your printed work? My mom has years worth of newspapers I edited, filled with my lame works and my columns. She is my living portfolio! If I ever decide to get back into the gig, I'll have to drag her along on interviews!
You're famous!
I just missed my reunion and was sort of glad since I've gained considerable weight. But after seeing the pics that came back from it, I was feeling awfully thin.
When will the tell all novel,
" LAF about Life" be in Books A Million... 2012 or sooner ?
Julie- Thank you!
Mr. Sweetypants- I need you to remember to tell the Department of Homeland Security that at our interview next week.
Zube the Younger- Do please tell Zube the elder how much I enjoyed seeing her at the reunion.
Diff Girl- I don't have any old print! And I totally wanna see yours. E-mail me at the addy in the column so I can see your real name and Google you. I love yer blog, so I know I'd love yer print. You could be my mentor!
Alice- Go to yer next one. I know how cool you are and I'm just a stranger. Yer classmates need to be reaffirmed.
Anon- Prolly when my old friend Nasty comes to Raleigh to hunker down with me and help me remember...
