And Back On Line…

on May 25, 2016

So, the interwebs went down. It was awful. I had to stop my junkie computer tap from one site to another. *shudder*  Like it was a bad dream. Anyway–it’s back up, and I am blogging again. Sadly, I’m mostly doing the old middle-aged woman thing tonight and whining–so, you know, maybe loiter a bit until… Read More


Ficlet Weekend: Scorched Haven, Part 7

on May 23, 2016

*yawn* Saw Angry Birds today, and then came home and slept. I don’t know why I was so tired–but wow. Just, you know, wow. Anyway, the movie was amusing–I enjoyed it, possibly because I enjoy writing grumpy fuckers like Bracken and Rance and Sonny, and I like the level of sincerity a character like that… Read More


Cats and Balls

on May 22, 2016

Short post tonight… So, went to a party for some friends of Mate’s from soccer. They were LOVELY people–and talk about creative with the home and yard stuff– everything they did was like Pinterest but better. I was impressed. (People who get creative with home decor always impress me. I’m just glad home is still… Read More


Find That Kid!

on May 20, 2016

So,  I went to Squish’s volunteer tea today–which was lovely. It’s an event thrown by the PTA and the teachers to say thanks for volunteering, and I felt like such a fraud–I’m only there a couple of times a year but Squish’s teacher is so kind– she asked, and I showed. Well, I parked myself… Read More

A real thing that happened in my house today: Me: Uh, Mate? Have you seen my keys? Mate (from work): No… but I did lock the car last night when I got home. Me: Fuuuuuuuck… Mate: I’ve got a really important meeting at nine. I’ll come get Squish for school afterwards. Me: Squish, bad news–… Read More

Scorched Haven: Part 6, Little Goddess Ficlet — The Shift

on May 15, 2016

It’s been a while–and t’s necessarily short while I edit and write other things, but I think we needed this: *** Colton’s healing wasn’t comfortable. His breathing may have evened out–he even spoke–but his body kept twitching, like a puppy with fleas. “Hurts,” he grumbled, and then sat up.  “And starving.“ “Yeah,” Zeb replied, looking… Read More


This Time, I Had My Camera…

on May 13, 2016

*  I spent part of the day in the dentist office, because that whole “Hey, this is a big part of my filling” moment last night was NOT good. Neither was getting the filling. Neither, I suspect, are the tiny pebbles of amalgam I’ve been spitting out all day. *sigh* Ouch. But the dentist office… Read More
