Professional Bad Butt

My buddy Mike, who the kids refer to as Zombie Mike, is part of my Ninja Writers group. Oh yes, secret ninjas! Angus thinks Zombie Mike is so funny that she is really excited to read his super awesome amazing incredibly funny book Geeks, Girls and Secret Identities that will be published by Arthur Levine/Scholastic sometime next year. This is the same girl who told me that she doesn't think she'll read my book because it is too violent and not funny enough for her. Argh.

Now granted, she is right. Mike's book is lose your lunch funny, so I guess I can't hold it against her. And besides this is my Ninja Zombie buddie Mike we're talking about! How can I hold a grudge against someone who sends me this:

He only sent me the fabulous nameplate, the little woodland creature design was done courtesy of Youngest who felt that it would help detract from the fact that I was admitting to having a bad butt. I think her exact words were "Mommy, you're butt isn't bad. Not like Daddy's!" Ha ha! That's my girl.
