Still alive from Atlanta

Do not be alarmed! We are alive and well in Atlanta – just totally exhausted, hopped up on sugar and overloaded. Today we had dessert 3 separate times. Of course we did.  By the time 10pm rolled around and we were still hungry, we decided some fried food would tamp down the sugar. Enter mozzarella sticks and onion rings in the bar.

We’re positive we are still alive because people keep recognizing Amylynn. Well not HER but her name.

“Are you AMYLYNN BRIGHT?” more than one person has said while looking at her name badge.

“Ummmmmmm,” Amylynn responds, bewildered, and wondering if this new, seemingly lovely lady is really an undercover FBI agent who stumbled upon this blog and is concerned about any number of animals being stolen and illegally domesticated.

“I loved your books,” she’ll say.

Or, “I follow your blog,” she’ll tell us.

Then we’re totally confused because we’re pretty sure only Mom and Aunt Debby read this blog with any regularity.

One absolutely charming lady at lunch recognized her and asked for the full story of the TSA/Delta debacle.

Then she asked for Amylynn’s picture. NO ONE who knows Amylynn will ever believe that she willingly sat for a quick picture and smiled nicely – not a grimace or a snarl – but a smile, but she did. Really.
