icky...just, icky

 Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I have to call out sick today. I woke up in the middle of the night with pinkeye. Gross.

Amen.  Time and tide wait for no one, though, and we are launching into National Poetry Month. I wrapped up the pre-order sales for my book on Friday, and I should have the final sales sheet later today.
