Yes, the snow is gone around here. It barely lasted through the morning yesterday before it all melted away.

However, from today onward, RAIN! Which means: to town & back, to town & back, etc., etc., in rain.

I don’t care!! I prefer sun, of course, but rain is better than snow. I am so ready for Spring, gand! (Alternate spelling for “gang”.)

Okay, guess what??

I made a HUGE dent in my “List of Things To Do Immediately” yesterday!! I almost can’t believe it.

I got all my current self-published titles — 8 are currently available — loaded, linked, etc., for the upcoming re-launch of the Indie Author Bookstore.

I have been trying to get all my various titles (self and otherwise published titles — 10 total) organized and available online before that Indie Author bookstore does a huge press release, and before my new novel comes out with Parisian Phoenix Publishing.

I still have 6 time-consuming things to do on my list, but they aren’t needed as immediately as all that stuff I did over the last few days. So it feels great.

I was kind of surprised to see that I have 10 books and/or eBooks in print. Some of it still needs organizing, but I usually think that most of my books are out of print now (a huge number of them are). So that was an interesting discovery.

Okay.

I spoke with Sandra yesterday and she had some great news!! It is about our play, “The Guide to being Fabulous,” off-Broadway, but I can’t really post about it yet.

And she did a live in-person streaming interview thingie at The Beechman Theater in NYC over the weekend. She said it went really great.

I believe it will soon be uploaded as a “prior podcast” thingie. Just look for “You Might Know Her From” at Apple or Spotify, if you’re interested in hearing it!

**************

Sandra also has some new digs in NYC (do people still use that word “digs” to mean a place to live in?), since she has to be in the city a lot right now.

Anyway, she’s in a huge apartment that she splits with a girlfriend and Sandra said that I can stay there probably for free, if I come to NYC while the other girl is out of town. Which I guess is most of the time. (It’s the other girl’s apartment.)

Anyway.

The apartment is literally one block away from the apartment wherein I used to live with Wayne when we were married — in which Wayne is still living.

I think that will feel so strange, gang. To be so close to where my other life was for so many years. I’m guessing I will sob uncontrollably but keep it all hidden, as I always do.

But I guess we’re gonna find out how it feels pretty soon.

But it’s all good, gang.

Okay.

Today is Tuesday!! Which means I stop at the Rural King to buy cat food before I start my shift!

Yes, my favorite 2 and a half minutes of the week will soon be underway — assuming ‘Wild Thing’ is working the checkout.

Meanwhile,,,,

Here’s this!

A color version of the Rolling Stones from that same photo shoot in London, 1969, that my favorite poster from my wee bonny girlhood was from (only in black & white):

***********

And speaking of black & white–

Here’s this!!!

Allegedly from March 2nd 1997 —

Nick Cave, wearing one of my favorite shirts! (Well, it’s his shirt, just a shirt I always liked!) (I don’t think I have ever seen this shirt in color, though. I have no idea what it looked like in “real life”.)

And in Berlin, in 1986, photographer Peter Anderson managed to capture a moment in time when Nick Cave was smoking!! Yay!!

***********

And that’s actually it because I gotta scoot!!

(I will be unbelievably thrilled gang when the days return wherein I don’t have to split my life between (even a part-time) job and everything else I have to do before I die…)

Still, have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

I leave you with this!!

Such a fantastic groove. I love Keith’s vocal here! (Do they still say ‘groove’?)
