“I hope you feel better today. Please ring me at work if you are dead.”
Jaclyn Moriarty, Feeling Sorry for Celia
tags: humor

“I'm screwed up, mixed up, messed around, dive-bombing, crashing and burning.”
Jaclyn Moriarty, The Year of Secret Assignments

“She's always getting into trouble because she gets bored really really easily. [...]

Jaclyn Moriarty, Feeling Sorry for Celia
