Diary #357

Last week was another busy one of travel.  I had to fly to San Francisco to give a speech at the convention of the Libertarian Party of California; I’m not really a party sort of gal (well, not THAT kind of party, anyhow), but I’ll talk to anybody who wants to hear about the importance of fighting for sex worker rights.  Anyhow, while I was down there I did a little paying work as well, and if you’d like to see me me on the next trip I know about (Chicago, probably the week of June 12^th but that’s not certain yet) you should probably get in touch with me pretty soon.  The higher dose of Valium, coupled with anti-nausea Zofran & booze in a first-class seat (thanks to a generous patron), plus no food for at least 8 hours before takeoff, seems to have helped the vertigo dramatically; even if it starts getting too bumpy for the CNS depressants to fully cope with, there’s just nothing in my stomach to embarrass myself with.  This is another busy week, but it’s all things in Seattle and most of the activities are fun ones with people I love.  Anyhow, in case it had escaped your notice, my new book is out; I’d really appreciate it if as many of you bought it this week as possible, and even more if you review it after reading it!  If you prefer a signed copy, I’ll have those available in a few days as soon as my own order comes in.  And in the next few weeks, I’ll finally be revealing the secret project I’ve been teasing y’all with for months!
