Summer vacation is over...

Because I have a new day job! Which is also why I haven't been posting or updating here (wrapping up some freelance projects, taking care of Miss Kitty after her surgery to remove a tumor - that turned out to be benign, just got the news yesterday, yay - and starting the new job).

Beginning this week, I am the communications director for the Ketner for Congress campaign. Linda Ketner is running for Congress in the 1st Congressional District of South Carolina against Republican incumbent Henry Brown. I'm really excited about the job and the campaign AND being in politics. And I'll be working my tail off between now and November to help get this woman elected. So, my dear friends, if you live in the 1st district, Vote for Ketner. If you're not, please ask your friends who do to Vote for Ketner. Visit her web site for more info on where she stands on the issues, help spread the word, donate to the campaign, or sign up to volunteer. And to my press-connected pals who want to do a story on Linda, you can reach me at klovejohnson(AT)lindaketner.com. You know I'll love you forever for doing it!

Real quick...

'cause I'm busy (busy stuffing my face with salad). Margaret was kind enough to offer to pick up lunch and asked me what I wanted and from where...I wished out loud for the salad I saw on a tv commercial last night. Margaret said she thought there was a Zaxby's on James Island and told me to Google it - there is! So she went and got a lovely "Zensation"* salad for me.

It was like magic: see something on television, want it, get it.

Yum. Happy day. How tasty is this salad? Shut the hell up, that's how good it is.

*Note: this is definitely not a low fat salad. I can tell because I'm eating it and the fat cells on my thighs are cheering.

On the radio...

My first radio interview for Skirt! Rules for the Workplace will be tonight!

Details here. Listen and you get a free pass to mock me afterwards.

They're heeeeere....

Now it's real: I have a book and I can hold it in my hand. My advance copies arrived this week. Let the shameless self promotion begin!

If you're a reviewer and would like an advance copy of Skirt! Rules for the Workplace , email me at kelly.love@skirt.com. I'll be your best friend (or at least your hi-bye friend) forever.
