When I get The Call, I would have to try really, really hard not to shout in the editor's ear. And after the phone call, I'd hit the spa and get a massage--an hour and a half of pure unadulterated bliss.Keira Soleorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440213826734580889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-1224075549642075852007-08-09T16:55:00.000-04:002007-08-09T16:55:00.000-04:00Enjoyed your call story today and hope you have gr...Enjoyed your call story today and hope you have great success on your release!tetewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04287233499993365048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3815530646091177574.post-60930499139729152032007-08-09T10:06:00.001-04:002007-08-09T10:06:00.001-04:00Congratulations, Jeanne!!!!

Especially having just met you face-to-face with Anna at breakfast, I can imagine your beautiful smile and how you must be glowing! <BR/><BR/>I actually got The Call at my 11 year-old son's hospital bedside following emergency surgery (that's a story in itself) but about 12 hours later, with him released and asleep, I shook up a bottle of champagne and did a little fizzy/slurping thing to celebrate.
