I will be brief
We are in San Antonio. The river walk is fun. We have tickets to the San Antonio v Sacramento game tonight. I went to Little’s Boots to get fitted for custom-made boots. It was awesome. The Littles are good people. David Little even drove us back to our hotel. I will get my boots in six months. I cannot wait.
The hotel is lovely. We have a balcony. There is free wifi in the lobby but not in our room. I have yet to hang out with any librarians or writers.
In other news it is warm. I do not need a coat or a scarf or gloves. I love San Antonio.
How’re y’all doing?

hmm, fortunately i’ve been busy writing a book (just finished) so i didn’t notice you gloating the other day about a certain super eight match. of course, not to deny that aus are on top form, but we’re playing some shabby cricket at the mo.
hope you’re having fun in san antonio.

Dess Says:
i dont particularly like unicorns but i would like to find out why justine has such distain against unicorns. i asked maureen johnson why you didnt like unicorns and she said… well just read above i already said what she said. so i hope you didnt see any unicorns there for fear of the unicorns being “acidentaly” hit by your car.
