Natalie Maines, “Mother.” I’d already signed up to volunteer the late shift Friday night during SXSW at my church, and this lady has been added to the lineup. Yippee! My sis pointed out today that I haven’t been posting much on Tumblr in recent days, and it won’t improve anytime soon. I imagine I’ll be on Twitter during the fest because I can... - http://elizs.tumblr.com/post...

And I said, “I’m directing a Puerto... - http://elizs.tumblr.com/post...
