In a Springsteen sort of mood

on June 14, 2010

Now I am very aware that I’ve made my true and everlasting love for The Boss very well known here, but I thought, since it was a very lazy weekend (on my part– Mate and Chicken ran a 5K and did dance rehearsal) which featured a trip to see Karate Kid (but alas, not the… Read More


Things that rock my world…

on June 11, 2010

* This. This definitely rocked my world. Yummy guys? Yummy yummy hot guys? IN ANIME? *swoon* *thud* * Going to Zoomboy’s class to see his purty purty art. * Seeing Squish ‘adopted’ as class pet, because she was a ‘little sister’– even though she was almost as tall as a lot of the first graders….

Various shit…

on June 10, 2010

* Okay, I just started feeding my blog through Goodreads, so if you look at my goodreads.com page, you can see the blog highlight. And because of that, I actually (get this) HESITATED giving this post a swearword in the title. *shakes head* Seriously– like someone who reads my fiction is gonna be put off… Read More


Unmotivated, my fat ass!

on June 8, 2010

I’m getting used to reviews, both good and bad, so I couldn’t figure out why this one stuck in my craw with such jagged edges. The reviewer said that Cory, my heroine, was “dumpy and unmotivated,” and for some reason, it made me just want to reach through cyberspace and slap someone. I mean Cory… Read More


What I did tonight…

on June 6, 2010

First of all, it was kind of you to start placing bets on my ability to keep my sanity over the summer. Do I have to remind you all that we’ve done this before? I’ve already LOST my mind… it’s not like it’s going to get LOSTER just because I’m locked in the asylum with… Read More


Yay I have my summers… off?

on June 3, 2010

Squish and I have been home together for the last three days. She’s gonna kill me. Seriously–today, I had to take Big T to a dentists appointment (there was a lot of “Holy Cats! Has that kid grown?” Uhm, he must have– he’s TALLER THAN A FREAKIN’ TANK!) so I took her too. We seriously… Read More


Let the Knitting Begin!

on June 1, 2010

OKay– first, for the goodreads.com feed… tomorrow IS June Second, Phonebook should be available from Dreamspinner tomorrow. “Phonebook” is actually a short story sequel to another short story. “Shirt” appeared in the Curious Anthology and featured two lovers–Scotty and Ryan– who had a rather surprising moment when Ryan got tangled up in his oxford shirt….

I’m not dead yet…

on May 29, 2010

First, because I like this song and love this video: And second– My last post was pretty damned bleak, so I thought I’d check in and tell you all that: Seriously– I”m doing much better. I spent a day or two sleeping and eating chocolate and doing some snuggling and some knitting, and now I’ve… Read More


Limping Through the Finish

on May 27, 2010

Okay. I just begged my oldest son to not talk to me. The debacle of my school year is complete. I can’t even BEGIN to tell you all how awful the last two days have been. My third period yesterday… was horrible. They tittered all the way through the final, they whispered, the tried valiantly… Read More


Phone book

on May 25, 2010

hee hee hee… Okay. So I’m easily entertained. But “Phonebook” is now available at Dreamspinner. The reason I’m so entertained is that, in spite of being the worst edited blog on the web, that title up top is NOT a typo. It seems that the only way they could get the damned thing to post… Read More
