Maybe, but it IS her fault that she got knocked up by the world's most famous married man. And I resent the fact that she can get away with anything by doing all that charity shit.
Not that charities are shit.
Bah.
I'm playing Final Fantasy VI and Street Fighter II.

Our gatos suck sometimes. They were fighting a couple of hours ago, and I can't get back to sleep. 
Hey, y'all:
Please take a minute to think of our dear pal Sweet Avenue, who is having a rough time with her health right now. We'll be collecting money and happy thoughts to send her way -- check the SG Chicago group this week as we'll be having a get together/benefit for her ASAP.

Nice to finally meet you in a (relatively) sober state & yap about the writing biz. What's the reason behind your world tour? Business? Pleasure? Both?
Let me know if you need any help organizing the shindig for SweetAvenue. Did you look into a PayPal account set up for her for donations? ohJAYfloe and I were chatting last night about how we really want too see her get to travel, like she wants to, anywhere she wants to.

P.S..: Because of all the work I have coming up, next Sunday will be my last day uptown at HardBoiled Records. If you ever wanted to stop by and say howdy, that's your last chance!

I thought you looked familiar. Yes, it's all a bit hazy, but it's coming back to me. Damn that evil fire water and demon weed. I can't afford to lose anymore brain cells! 
lalindaloca:
Hey! Congrats on the book deal! I have a book coming out in Spring '06 from Black Cat Press... with hopes of snagging a larger publisher. Did you use an agent? Nice article in the NYT. Funny thing, I went to Berlin last February and wrote about it... mine was much less a travelogue as it was a sex-a-logue. Here's the link to the column on my booty call in Berlin!

I have signed a book deal with Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. HBJ will be releasing my as-yet untitled book in Winter 2006. I would venture that it will make a fine holiday gift, or doorstop.. Exciting times in Trecker-land.

It looks like we're onboard with Markosia. They're odd ducks but we'll see how it goes. I'm getting a page rate anyway.

February? Let's talk about this - things may be crazy over here this month (we're pitching a really big piece of kickass biz). If we land it -- even though we'll be busy as hell -- i may have more resource availability... sounds odd, eh? If we don't land it, I could get a big jump on it after the 20th.
Who's flippin' the bill now?
Triple date: Skylark? *the girl* has never been and it's been ages for me.

Lotsa stuff going on! EIGHT publishers are vying over my new book, and bidding is going up -- something I never expected! Writing a few mag pieces right now as well as the usual; also www.jamietrecker.com will be going live in 2006 so you can, um, well I dunno what I'm going to put up there yet, but it will be something! Golly gee.
