*LETTER/EMAIL OF THE WEEK…

Keith-

I talked to you briefly at this year’s Comic-con about a few of my “life’s
little victories” that I had this summer, and you told me to email them to
you. (You showed me where you bought that Owly hat for your little guy.) I
talked with my wife about some of these moments, since we decided to spend
practically the entire summer camping in a pop-top camper with our two
kiddos. (Yes, it was nuts.) So, here are my little victories in an otherwise
insane summer vacation.

– Half-way to our next camping spot I realized (3 hours into the drive,)
that I forgot my new iPhone at the last camping spot, only to find it on the
roof of our car when we stopped for lunch. The case was a weird rubbery
thing that my wife insisted I had to have.
– We forgot firewood for keeping warm, but then the previous campers left
a huge stack of wood.
– I went to use the community showers at the KOA where TONS of people
were camping, only to find that all the toilets and showers were vacant and
newly cleaned.
– Camping with my kids for the first time, and they actually sleep in.
– Getting called by my mother-in-law (the inlaws and 12 other family
friends joined us for a few nights camping in Mendocino) to play a card
game and I win three times in a row.
– Remembering that I packed extra wine when we almost ran out.

I have more, but I hope that helps! (Do you actually use these? If so,
awesome.)

On a side note, after I bought your big-ass “Complete K-Chronicles,” I wound
up placing it on the top of the toilet in the master bedroom. This was not
because that’s where I intended it to be, but it just happened. A few days
ago, my sister dropped by our house to hang out with us and the kids and at
one point she disappeared. A few moments later I heard her snorting and
blorting out laughs from our bathroom and my wife looked at me with
concern.

“It’s okay honey, it just keef,” I said.

My sister wants a copy for Christmas, so I have to make a stop at Powells
Books next time I visit her in Portland and pick one up.
We love your stuff, dude.
