Am I excited? Let's just say I've been struck kinda dumb by it all. The most intelligent thing I've said today is "Squeeee!"

I love the Jungle Reds, even though their blog host won't ever let me comment on the blog.
Kaye, I'm SO happy for you! Jungle Red is one of my favorite sites - I try to read it every day! And such a bunch of gifted people - for them to invite you means you're just as special as some of us thought you were/are! Thelma Straw in tickled to death for you in Manhattan - was hot, then cool, now hot again!
Yay! This is great, Kaye. Congratulations for landing this exciting new gig.
Looking forward to seeing you on Jungle Red...a wonderful blog!
