So we're on tour, yeah? For How to Be Bad? I think we may be jinxed, because here are the bad things that have happened so far:
--E's shoes were stolen (why?!!! why would someone steal another person's shoes????)
--I lost *all* data on my computer, including the novel I'm supposed to, er, finish
--there was vomiting
--there was crying
--WE GOT A SPEEDING TICKET FROM A COP NAMED FLOYD!!!!!!
--I was forced to eat yucky cottage cheese
--and worst of all, no one has read How to Be Bad and told me if they like it!!!!!! Boo!!!
All that, in only two days. Geez Louise.
But other than that, life is grand. :)
Make me feel better by sharing some of your own "bad day" woes, will ya? Oh, and check out the pics below. Not *everything* is going wrong...
xoxo,
me



P.S. If you made it this far in the entry, you should know that:
--we did not even consider boob-squashing police officer Floyd, unlike Mel, Jesse, and Vicks when they had their brush with the world's smallest police officer
--my brilliant husband talked me down through my tears and helped me recover my lost file
--AND, we are staying at the Peabody tonight, which is duck heaven, which is thus Lauren heaven. Because I love you, I made the following display of Peabody delights found in my room:

And here's Mr. Peabody Duck himself:

And FINALLY, here's the duck I see on the waterfront outside my window. I requested a room with a view...and boy, did I get one!

Me and my girl enjoyed meeting you three at The Bookmark yesterday. I see you made it to the beach. Atlantic Beach, Florida is the BEST beach on the east coast! And you like to take "feet" pictures like I do too! Well, I can't comment on How to Be Bad because I just thought it would be a bit much for my 10 year old but I'm looking forward to reading all the other novels of yours that I bought. Have fun on tour!
Jeannie from Atlantic Beach, FL

You wrote jesse!!!! it is so obvious... that is your style of writing
Kate from Atlanta
SIGH.
Peace, Love, and Baby Ducks lives on!!!!
Sorry.
Plus, today was good for me as well. I finished Peace, Love, and Baby Ducks!!! Kinda. Now I've got to read it over...
Happy belated b-day!!!!!!
Every year, my neughborhood has a yard sale, my cousin, Katie, was selling her old Nikes. Some CREEEEEEEEEEP stole them!!!!!!!!! But Lauren, do you think that Vicks would stel someone's shoes? Or Maddie? Or Gail if they were Prada? Or Jana if they were also Prada? What kind of shoes were they? Hope U'R not feeling blue! Tour is a HAPPY time!!!

The bit about Gail and Prada, though...genius!
E's weren't Prada. They were "slides." She was a very good sport about it.
P.S. Bobby and I were watching Full House, and Bobby sighs, "Stephanie is realy pretty!" It was an episode where Stephanie was like, 16. "Bobbby! She is way older than U!" Bobby just grinned and said, "Hey, I gotta knack for older women! Catch ya later kid!" The he did that thing Fonzie does. I was rotfl!
NaT
Ducks for luck?
