But then, I have problems filing a tax return, being a woman who is not a citizen. Anything I earn just gets lumped onto my husband’s at his highest tax bracket. Malaysia boleh!

Love this country with its myriad of contradictions…

And I’ll hold you to that west coast thing. I’ll even nag you on it. Fall is VERY pretty out here – September is very nice. SO is May. So is most of summer. Aw, come on, you KNOW you want to… [evil grin]

I’ll be spending a few days in NY in May. Want to see my editor, among other things.

One of these days I’ll get to the west coast and I’ll drop by! Hey, and what’s this I hear about you giving a writing course on the San Juan islands? Now that’s not bad…
