My friend, Ambrosia, and her beloved, brought a baby to my house tonight. Sure, there was visiting–but the baby. I mean… look at her. So much adorability. Both kids got to hold the baby. They were overjoyed. And I got to talk to my friends. But mostly I got to hold the baby. The dogs… Read More

Geoffie is concerned about where the weekend went. So… Friday, Squish, Chicken, Big T, Mate, and I, all went to see ZoomBoy’s play. The play itself was You Can’t Take it With You, and for the record, if you are curious about this George Kaufman creation, DON’T watch the Frank Capra film with Lionel Barrymore… Read More

Yeah. The title says it all. Okay– so I get into the hot tub which is usually my happy place, right?  And usually, since I get to class late and then stay and try to make the time up, I’m alone, but not this time. This time, I get there in time to hear an… Read More

First of all, Familiar Angel is out, and so far people have enjoyed it. As I said last post, it’s not Little Goddess– low angst, high speed chases and sex on wings dominate– but it’s urban fantasy (with a little bit of history thrown in at the beginning) and I had so damned much fun… Read More

So, I was supposed to take Newt-Dewey the Magnificent Gray Floof to the vets today–but I left the back door open and Dewey ended up having a very different day than I had planned, something involving MI6 agents and saving the world, I assume, but he could have just been plotting the downfall of the… Read More

Well, first of all, it was Bellevue, which means I sort of waved at Seattle in passing, but since Bellevue (or the part I saw of it) was amazing, I’m not going to quibble. Second of all, I need to give some shoutouts– *  Carmen Cook and her wonderful husband, Scott, who both welcomed a… Read More
