Okay, so we got a new mattress today– one of the kinds that comes rolled up in a box? I napped on it. It was delicious. Anyway– that’s not the point. The point is, I was out of the house when it arrived, and Mate went into the garage and left the connecting door open…. Read More

Hey all! First of all, I’m going to talk up the RT BookLover’s convention in Reno on May 15-20th. I’ve mentioned this to about five people–romance lovers all–in the Sacramento area, and they’ve all been like, “Really?

So, Reno is… well, it’s Reno. To quote Elliot Gould in Ocean’s 11 “You’re out in the middle of the fuckin’ desert!” and while the quote is about Las Vegas, well, the shoe fits. The college was lovely though–Mate went on their hiking trail while I was in class and pronounced it good. (“Oh, wow–… Read More

So, today was my stepmom’s birthday, and it was sort of a busy day for me, but I wanted to get her a card since I was going to be up by her house anyway–I had to take Big T to the dentist, and our dentist is about a mile away from my parents’ house,… Read More
