Did you miss me yet? Thanks to all of you for your determined and consistent telephone calls, e-mails, and picket lines to my internet service provider (although to those of you with the eggs and tomatoes, I have to say that while the gesture was appreciated, I cannot condone violence of any sort). Out of raw joy for being able to read to you again, my ego’s imagination will take over, and I can picture you all, over the past few days, sharing these thoughts those days, maybe replacing “telephone” with “read to me,” but the gist is there.
Fear not, tomorrow we shall be returning to our regularly sized ego.

Though it’s a bit unsettling at first to hear dear Dorothy with a Yorkshire or Midlands (?) accent, this piece was performed with all the aplomb of a professional actress in a one-woman show. A very effective recreation of a dramatic scene where the one prop, a telephone, doesn’t even need to be seen.

This is nice, but if you ever get a chance you should check out “Here We Are” also by Parker. One of my favorites. In addition, if you haven’t read her collection of poetry Enough Rope, you really should. Keep up the great work. I’ve only recently discovered this site, but I’ve gone back and d/l all the archives. Thanks so much for all your effort!
