Apparently, I am the Carrie Bradshaw of chronic illness!?
Manolo Blahnik, where have you been all my life?
A real post, complete with action photos and musings on routines and why we need to break them to follow...

Congratulations on the book Laurie! The review was great. Take care!

Hey Laurie, This Carrie Bradshaw thing is hilarious. I just wrote a post about it, and about your book, on my blog. http://dancingwithpain.com/women-in-pain-sex-the-city-and-a-spy-in-my-brain/
Congrats on the book & the article Laurie! I am so glad I found your book and your blog! The purchase of your book is at the TOP of my "to do" list, since I just learned of you yesterday! I cannot wait to read it.
Wow! What a great writer- she found a way to grab people's attention with that line- and it worked! Wish I had thought of that approach...
Thanks, everyone, for the enthusiasm and support!!
Woo hoo! Of course, if we're going to meet in person, I should probably pick which of the remaining 4 I am... Choices, Choices. :)
I'm so excited about the reading, and LOVING the book! It is fabulous!
