My essay "On Dreams, Appetites and Possibilities" will be included in the anthology Still Me... After All These Years, along with stories by twenty-three wonderful authors. Still Me was conceived by author and blog friend Karen Helene Walker who collected these stories and put it all together. I'm very grateful to be part of this exciting project.
Don't you love the cover?

And it's still hump day so here's a hump day funny for you. The following are signs that were spotted all across the country. Some you might have to give a second thought.
At a Santa Fe gas station: We will sell gasoline to anyone in a glass container.
In a New York restaurant: Customers who consider our waitresses uncivil ought to see the manager.
On a long-established New Mexico dry cleaners: 38 years on the same spot.
In a Los Angeles dance hall: Good clean dancing every night but Sunday.
In a New York drugstore: We dispense with accuracy.
In the offices of a loan company: Ask about our plans for owning your home.
In a New York medical building: Mental Health Prevention Center
On a New York convalescent home: For the sick and tired of the Episcopal Church.
At a number of military bases: Restricted to unauthorized personnel. (Note: I've seen one of these!)
In a clothing store: Wonderful bargains for men with 16 and 17 necks.
Um...how's that again?
Okay, time for your weekly "aw".
Just a couple of friends...
Does that qualify as dancing cheek to cheek?
That's it for today. Hope you found enough chuckles in here to get you over the midweek hump and coasting to the weekend.
Watch for more news on Still Me...After All These Years as we get closer to the release date.
