Quick one tonight–I’m on a roll. So, I was walking my dogs (shocked, we are, Amy–because you do this six days a week) and on the approach side of the giant, mile-long loop, there was a GINORMOUS HOUND. Like an English Mastiff or a pit bull or something that was taller than his person when… Read More

So, partly we’re doing the same-ol, same-ol here–Mom the taxi service and Mom the writer both vie for the same time slot. But still– the same-ol has it’s appeal, and since Mate and I are driving up to Oregon this weekend to attend my cousin’s wedding, the same-ol’ same-ol’ is sort of a welcome respite… Read More

Wow–so I went to work out today and I didn’t expect it to destroy my life. But I’m falling asleep with no writing done and that hardly seems fair. So I will leave you with a few observations made during my day, and then either wake up completely wand write or go to bed and… Read More

Oi, yesterday was long. But one of those magic things happened in the plane–I used the plane wifi for a couple of hours before my phone got to about half-charge, and then I stuck to Kindle, and in that time, we switched to  CMT. So, little beknownst to ME, the time  on my phone was… Read More

So the pictures are on automatic random– which means we’re going from parts of Thursday night to Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in just any order ever! If it helps, the 20’s party was Th, the awards were Friday, and the signing and Fantastic Day party were Saturday. And the yarn store and lunch with my… Read More

Okay– so a little tipsy– I think I’m going to do a quick post of mostly captions here. I’ve had an amazing two days. This is the prize table for Cinema Craptastique last night–a LOT of amazing authors gave some great stuff, and we had the most fun giving it away while talking shit about… Read More
