I'm Siiiinging For It To Rain

Hello, weather report. I have a request. Please make it pour on Saturday. Buckets and buckets of water. A whole heaping curtain of the stuff. Why? Because IF it rains on Saturday the Bank Street Bookstore with pick up authors Mo Willems, Chris Raschka, and Jane O'Connor by the scruff of the neck and deposit them safe and sound in MY children's room. That means I will be able to actually meet Mo (yes, Mother Reader, I'll use you as an opener) and, even more pleasurable, tell Chris Raschka that he is a) Cute and b) Not allowed to keep telling that story about how he got kicked out of the Donnell Library lo these many years ago.
