Okay…Mother of Chaos tagged me with a meme of 8 random things. I’ve been tagged with this one before, so I think the challenge will be to see how truly random I get. I’m sort of the world’s most boring human–it’s gonna be tough. I’m tagging Catie, Roxie, Netter, Knittech, Lady in Red, Rae, Samurai,… Read More

I hesitate to do this because I’m afraid nobody will read yesterday’s post, which offers a teaser to BITTERMOON that I’m particularly proud of. But I can’t help myself… I’m such a sucker for a poll–I got this one from Samurai, and I’m going to outrage the purists and fill it out including my crochet… Read More

Okay…I’ve hit the 1/2 way part of BITTER MOON, and I promised Needletart that I’d use her story of how she learned how to knit in someway, because I was so very enchanted with it. The religion in the book is based on the three moons of the world–Oueant, god of honor, Dueant, god of… Read More

Don’t worry about my last post, guys…there’s an axiom at our hs–don’t quit in the first six weeks or the last six weeks… or two weeks before… Read More

I was cruising on Friday–just cruising. I had been working pretty steadily, entering grades–my grades were not stellar, they were not pristine, but after six weeks of computer outage in 14 weeks of school, well, they were at least UNEMBARRASSING… I had two things to do. One, enter the late work that my more inconsiderate… Read More

It sucks… Wait, wait, there’s more. It sucks REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD. I do this every year. Every year I commit projects to students because I want to do it all. And then, once I’ve JUST ABOUT filled my project roster so that I, if I work very hard and ignore my family, might just… Read More

Dear Diary, today I… * Argued with the Cave Troll all the way to daycare. Pried him out of his carseat and gave his hand to the babysitter (who was holding Ladybug in the other arm) so I could flee out the front door without him following me, sobbing. * Bawled all the way to… Read More
