Alabama-bred, living in Delaware for the time being
About Me:
I'm on extended leave from academia while I raise my little kids. I write fiction when I have the time and inclination. Still getting used to not living in the South, being in my 40s, staying at home, living on one income, and motherhood. Seems like all these things happened at once. Two elderly Italian Greyhounds add to the chaos of our household.

    Evelyn, Rehoboth is a very popular spot. I don't know why so many Delawareans go to the Outer Banks when there are great beaches here. It's not like they "get away"--they run into the same people in the grocery store down there as they do up here! I will look into your doggie mystery! We so love all the sighthound breeds.

    I just rewatched American Beauty yesterday. I forgot to list it as one of my favorite, but it is, absolutely, one of them.

    Also, Arrested Development? I was actually mildly clinically depressed when Fox dropped it, Showtime flirted with picking it up, but then the writer decided he didn't want to write it anymore.

    Never has there been a more clever, less-watched, show on television. Typical American viewers. Always viewing the wrong stuff...

    Patti, AD was pretty incredible. I could watch it over and over and never get tired of it.
