Comment: First of all, LOVE the dolphin PC! It will get a special place on my office bulletin board. And secondly, I would have to say your truth is sharing an elevator with Bill Murray. Great swap. This was so much fun.
Response: Glad you liked the PC! I love Bill Murray, but that was only a fantasy! The truth is actually stranger than fiction, it is number 3, I worked in a nightclub, etc! Oh, my wild youth!

Comment: Lovely gifts! I've already started reading the book (although I'll probably need to set it aside for a couple of weeks for Yule celebrations). Love the stars and the votive, too (the votive is such a perfect color!). Thanks so much!

Hi, Karen...just another note. Read your profile and wanted to say that I LOVE Marion Zimmer Bradley...might have to pull out my Mists of Avalon and do a re-read. Love anything in that era.Waiting ( impatiently) for True Blood to return....I collect sea glass, too!! Gonna have to paint you an ornament!! Happy May!
