A visit with Janet Evanovich 19 June 2008 at 8:58 am by Jason 288 views

Last night Jessica got to meet one of her favorite authors, Janet Evanovich, who just released her 14th book in her “Stephanie Plum” series.  While I’ve not read any of the books (not too big on the Romance/Mystery genre myself), Jessica is absolutely in love with them, so this morning I went and waited in line at the Borders store that she was appearing at.  Seems they’ve been having huge turnouts (as she’s quite well known) and are making people wear wristbands to determine where they get to be in line.

Luckily we were one of the first people in line to see her (15th, actually!) so we were in and out real quick… based on how packed the place was there were probably people there for hours.  You can see a pic I took of the crowd here (a lot of people showed up):

And of course, here’s a pic of Jess with Mrs. Evanovich and her signing her book:

All in all, it was an eventful night, but Jess is happy and she got to meet one her favorite authors, so that makes me happy I could do that for her.  For any of you wondering if Janet will be coming to your town, check the site below for more info:

Happy reading!



+ Harry Potter and the Gross Tapeworm of Azruntibar By Jason 16 July 2005 at 7:00 pm 39 views No Comments

So, last night (to make Jess feel better), we went and sat at Borders till Midnight, waiting for the new Harry Potter book. It was pretty nice, some oddballs dressed up (see below):

So, that was going to be the end of this post, but it seems that Kisa (one of our kittens) has tapeworms (gross!!!). We had to fight all day today to give her meds, and hopefully that should fix them. Let’s just say it was horribly gross… and I never want to see it again!Okay, that’s it for now… expect more later!
