"You and your book are in the news! See page 11. Congratulations." said the email from the PR people.
"Wait is that you?" Gail asked a week later on our regular morning walk as she pointed to the rolled-up paper on the concrete.
In unison, we both bent over and peered closely.

Yep, me again.
On the concrete.
Untouched.

The worst part - I'm even more rumpled and wrinkled than ever...
What a sight to come upon. Love it! And how you positioned the paper in the chalkwoman's hand. That's cute.
But you still look great to me...what paper?😂
