You don’t understand, no-one does. When a woman makes the choice to marry, to have children; in one way her life begins but in another way it stops. You build a life of details. You become a mother, a wife and you stop and stay steady so that your children can move. And when they leave they take your life of details with them. And then you’re expected move again only you don’t remember what moves you because no-one has asked in so long. Not even yourself. You never in your life think that love like this can happen to you. -Francesca, Bridges of Madison County

Well, we big rock singers, we got golden fingers, and we’re loved everywhere we go.

6 January, 2006 /

I am going to give props to people that stand in front of camera and do interviews. There is NO WAY I can do this again. I was a wreck! Shaun of course got the butter questions and then the camera got on me I got the hard ones.

I think I took “Deer in the headlights” look to a whole new level.

The interview went well. They fell in love with Alyx and when she mentioned she sold her blog frog picture on Ebay, the decided to interview her holding the picture. (The owner of the blogfrog picture hasn’t emailed me to tell me she’s back in town so I can send it to her)
She did better than I did. At least when they asked her questions she didn’t get that blank look on her face and start mumbling incoherently.

Shaun said he will Tivo the news and put it on a DVD for you all.

Today was a roller coaster day for me. Thank you for the supportive comments and emails. They will be stuffed in my coffin when I die of heart attack from all of this.
