Hey! I added a frappr map, over there under the People typelist. Go ahead and add yourself!  If you have privacy concerns, make up name/email if you’d like — I just have a love of maps and geography and love reading in my stats where folks are coming from…. and I like this map better than the other one that made its way around the blogosphere a while ago.  So, if you want to be Jane Doe, jd@gmail.com, go ahead! I won’t be offended, since other people can see when you pin the map.

Also in the news, my fair city has been listed as one of the "50 most fabulous places to raise a family." I TOLD YOU SO! And since I live in probably the most fabulous neighborhood in the city (not by wealth or anything, but by location/amenities/neighbors/etc, I feel extra special. 🙂

And finally, I’m going to be in a book! 🙂  She hasn’t mentioned it yet, but since it IS listed on Amazon now, I’m going to go ahead and brag her up, but the amazing editor at Digs is having her first book published in May.  Called "First Digs: the quasi-adult’s guide to decorating with style, without blowing your budget," it’s available for pre-order now.  4.5 years ago, I did an article for the website about using spraypaint, and a year ago, she contacted me to get written permission to use the article in the book she was working on.  I think it’s cool to be included, but more than that, I’m really proud of yee-fan for getting a real live book to come to fruition as a result of all of her hard work on Digs. She’s a fab person, and we should all support her! (Makes a great graduation gift for that person just heading out into the world, people!)
