Bella Umbrella. They’re not cheap, but they work marvelously well (both as a rain umbrella and sun parasol), and they come with a lifetime warranty. I have already gotten my money’s worth many times over.

It’s THEIR fault for hiring somebody who can’t use the word THEY’RE correctly.

They better keep in “You Gotta Getta Gimmick”, or I will be sad. I was Electra in our college’s production of “Gypsy” and that was one of the most fun songs ever to do.

Actually, that was the “word of the day” in today’s Wordsmith email. I’m pretty sure she must get those, too.

I can’t remember if I recommended the series to you, but if you like Dresden, The Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne will blow you out of the water.

YAY! If you’re already in love with the first one, you’ll be guaranteed to love the whole series. Each book only gets better.
