Covers! I got covers! Two possible covers for LITTLE EARTHQUAKES!

I got two fabulous, gorgeous, arresting, inviting covers and no one to show them to!

My editor's out of the office. My agent is walking her dog. My husband can't meet me for lunch. None of my friends are answering their phones.

I think I'm going to put both covers on the floor and see which one Lucy crawls toward.

Meanwhile, I'm going to have more to say about Caitlin Flanagan's piece about working mothers and the nannies who make their lives possible later. You know, as soon as I pull the guilt-stake out of my heart.

I don't know if other parents do this. But occasionally Adam and I will talk to each other in a little high-pitched squeaky Lucy voice.

Most of the time we will have Lucy comment on her activities and her surroundings, and her plan to train a baby cadre and how she's enlisted the dog in the service of her secret plot to topple the Bighead world. (The personality we've given her is sort of a cross between Stewie on Family Guy and Diana Ross, pre-drunkening).

But occasionally, Adam will have her blurt out total nonsequiturs, many of them culled from 1980's television events. To wit, this morning he carried Lu over to the bed, and I said, "How are you, sweet one?" and he replied, as Lucy, "WHICH ONE OF YOU BITCHES IS MY MOTHER?"

Putting the Nep back in Nepotism....my brother Joe Weiner interviews my sister Molly Weiner about her part in IN HER SHOES. Also, why wasn't Cami at the Grammys? Check out this week's People for the answer! Or simply to allow me to recap that they said she missed Justin Timberlake's big night because she was "preparing to shoot IN HER SHOES across town."

And to think, my mother still believes I'm making this up.

Meanwhile, have heard back from my editor who thinks new book is faboo. So I can start breathing again. Whew.

I'm still planning on having a chapter of it up in a week or two. The trouble is, I'm still hashing out exactly how the book will start, and because I want to post the beginning....well, just be patient. Patience, my pets!
