ADD-A-ROOM!!

My dear friend Lady Chardonnay in her oh so clever way brought up a subject mysterious to her - the add-a-room. Us hardcore campers all know what this is - a sort of tent that you put on the front of your camper to...wait for it...ADD a ROOM to your camper.

The reason she brings this up is because I sold my mother's trailer to some nice people having told them that there was an a-a-r (some times we cool campers are so blase that we abbreviate) when there is, in fact, not. This would have added nearly a thousand dollars to the price. Whoopsie!

Hopefully the kind (and probably by now really really pissed) buyers will stumble upon this - my favorite science article ever- and it will make them laugh and therefore not try to come and find me with baseball bats to break my kneecaps.

Maybe I will fond a forum like this to post my shame at my pathetic salespersonship.

Wondering where I was? This is where I lived for the past 3 weeks. It was really fun. My children got filthy and ran amok like savages. I sat in the shade and read dozens of books. It was lovely.

The fine coating of mold that began to grow on us and all our belongings has been scraped off and we are back to normal.

This week is sit on my butt and do nothing week because next week is teach 13 middle schoolers to write, perform and produce a comedy show camp. Doesn't that sound like fun?

Here is a bit of the funniest writing I have read for awhile. It is the blog of Quinn Cummings. You remember her from "The Goodbye Girl" and "Family". She is very, very funny. Enjoy.
