Insane Nutshell of the Last 24 hours
Loki is on an antifungal now. The vet recommends a specialist to scope his nose and see what’s going on. Pricey – until we called, the estimate is twice what our vet thought it would be. On the way to get coffee at the independent roaster in Downtown Arlington. We hit road construction. The road [...]
Technology Fails Me…Or Vice Versa…Once More
I had some ideas for being extra creative in the next year… and trying to get a running start on that, I went to pull up some very old files. VERY OLD files. Very old WordPerfect files (like version 6 – late 1990s). So trying to figure out what to do (Office won’t open them), [...]
Writerly Post – Sort of, Not Really — TOO EXCITED.
I know I owe you guys a post on being a writer… and I started two different ones, then this happened… You see, I sent a copy with Jimmy to #SDCC – yes, to give to her because Felicia is inspirational in doing things the non-traditional way. And because we did When the Party’s Over [...]

Last year’s event was a success because of the great vendor participation & public attendance. [...]
New Loki Pictures
While I’m waiting for my files to back up to my hard drive… This one was a great one… I swear his middle name is “Beaker”. Being goofy. Diamond is still not altogether sure about him, but I think she’s coming around… and now… Glow-in-the-Dark Dog…
Diamond’s Very Bad Day – Loki, the New Family Member
So, we decided after Dixon passed that once we got through June (get Scarborough and two Conventions over), we’d get another dog – as Jimmy’s allergic to cats. We decided to start the search this weekend. The first trip didn’t go so well, but a friend at church pointed me to Petfinder.com. This is after [...]
Cosmetic Changes
Someone called me “blond” at Soonercon (not the first time – might be the last time). I’ve been thinking of trying to fade out my gray hair for a while. My hairdresser convinced it me it was okay – but couldn’t find the time – and told me what to get from Sally’s Beauty supply. [...]
Technology is Giving Me a Migraine
Well, I figured out iBooks on my own. You had to download something from iBooks first to create a library icon to drag the stuff from Stanza. Did that. Now I get to apologize to everyone I’ve told my chapbook is in .ePub format. The file extension clearly says .pdb – which reads on Stanza, [...]
