Random Drive By Updates, Monday Version
Apparently I’ve got a following among the Russian spammers. The Cyrillic script is pretty and all, but…just sayin’. Friday night was AWESOME – we went to see The Blanks at the McKinney Performing Arts Center. It was very much worth the ticket price and the drive halfway to Oklahoma to see it. We thought it […]
Happy Friday!!!! We made it
This made me laugh. I had to share. It’s Friday. For all the Monday Smackdowns we’ve dealt with in the last 10 days. This Friday feels GOOD. And now I know how to respond to the Monday Smackdowns… see more Lolcats and funny pictures Yesterday I committed fiction. It’s been sporadic over the last few […]
Computer Heart Transplants and Taunting Mondays
For the record… Never Taunt Monday. It smacks back. But trust me, I won’t forget my cell phone on the charger again any time soon. Crazy things happened on Monday when I taunted it AND forgot my cell phone. My lovely, lovely laptop is back – well, mostly. I’m still reloading programs and getting everything […]
Overall Productive Writerly Weekend
There were some new words on a new story. There were even more plot bunnies. I attended Dave Wolverton’s “Write that Novel!” workshop this weekend. And that just put the icing on the cake of inspirational butt kickings. I will be writing more. I will be working The Plan. My gathering of first readers/copyeditors is […]

She takes a lickin’ and keeps on tickin’. Dixon, the Elder Cat, does not have Thyroid problems. Go figure.

There are a couple more tests we’ll […]
Dixon Update – Good News/No News

Elder Cat Issues and Possible Radio Silence
My 19 year old cat, Dixon, may have had a stroke. She may have a dread disease. She may just be 19 and about to shuffle off this mortal coil. My husband is arranging to take her to the vet on the advice of our cat expert, Dusty. I can’t do it. She may be […]
Perspective…Continued
Just something to keep in mind as we work our plans and make our futures. see more Lolcats and funny pictures But seriously, there’s been a minor epiphany which moves straight into the whole Working the Plan thing — it’s Time. It’s My Time. It’s My Turn. Whatever weird mental block there may have been […]
Guilty Pleasures and Working the Plan
I have a new “guilty pleasure”. Well, I’m starting a new guilty pleasure. Carolyn Hennesy’s Pandora series. I picked up the first one at Half-Price Books because of an inside joke I had with Gordon van Gelder, about Pandora. Now I want to read the rest of the series.
