(Amanda) Debby's giving me a stern talking-to about my lack of reading-this-blog. I am an avid reader as of now. You should be, too. Because a stern talking-to from Debby Scott is a thing of .. not beauty, really, but it is awesome. And it makes one want to read a blog. So imagine a stern talking-to, and start reading this thing with enthusiastic regularity! I mean, a 4 1/2 year old discussing his lastest Ramona read-through, Debby considering alchoholism ~ this is going to be a major phenomenon ~ don't you want to say you were there from the almost-start?
