After the debate, come to our book signing!
**UPDATE** I won't be able to attend tonight's signing due to unbloggable events. I will be at the Saturday signing no matter what!
Dang, I wish we were having the book signing for Sleep is for the Week at a margarita watering hole, but we will have the next best venue, Kepler's in Menlo Park, CA, one of the great independent bookstores in the country which happens to be - right next to a bar!
Oh, forget my lowly barfly ways. Kepler's is a cozy, wonderful setting and tonight, I will be there, sitting behind a table with women with whom I'm humbled to call my esteemed co-authors: Stefania Pomponi Butler, Jenny Lauck, Jenifer Scharpen and Lisa Stone. (That's Stefania looking sultry and Jenifer looking winsome.)
The very nice blurb from Kepler's:
Thursday October 02, 2008
Kepler's in Menlo Park at 7:30 p.m. (1010 El Camino Real Menlo Park CA, 94025)
Sleep Is for the Weak: The Best of the Mommybloggers Including Amalah, Finslippy, Fussy, Woulda Coulda Shoulda, Mom-101, and More!
Seeking advice and a sense of camaraderie, more than half a million readers per month turn to the "mommyblogs" featured in this collection, which brings together their best and brightest essays, ranging in style from snort-Diet-Coke-out-the-nose funny to poignant and bittersweet. Written to be read during the mind-bogglingly short breaks parents get during their busy days, these pieces will help moms find solace through a wide range of viewpoints and issues not often discussed in mainstream magazines and parenting books--from dealing with rage to negotiating sleeping arrangements to experiencing the frustrations and joys of parenting a special-needs child.
Then - we're going to do this all over again on Saturday at 5pm in downtown San Francisco - this time at a bar! We'll still probably need to do some drinking post-VP debate, or post Union Square shopping, or just because the drinks are free.
Saturday, Oct. 4
Sleep Is for the Weak
Swig in San Francisco from 5-7 p.m. (561 Geary St, San Francisco, CA 94102)
Both events are sponsored by our pals at Graco - they rock with their generous sponsorship of our book tour. They're also represented by rockin' women (HELLO LINDSAY! F*CKIN A, DUDE!) (That's how rockin')
All righty then. Come on down, I'll be dressed up and wearing lipstick. Sarah Barracuda has nothing on my MAC enhanced lips.
Wish I could be there. Sounds like fun.

I've got to go to the SEPTAR meeting instead (you know, the beneficiaries from Can I Sit With You? -- thought up by the awesome Squid & Jenny Alice) but I might see you Saturday.
