So…yesterday I finished spanking a book into shape, along with a couple synopses, and sent that off for perusal. I cleaned my desk, did laundry, watched some X Files (while working), played some pinball, caught up on some episodes of Lost (I’m on Season 4) and generally accomplished a lot. Today, I think I will [...]

Most of you didn’t even know I was gone, but I was! And for a long time, too! First to the Supernatural convention in Parsippany, then off to the beach for a nice long vacation. Not long enough, but hey, leave while you’re having fun, right? I’m glad to be back home and back at [...]
Wednesday: up at 3:15, on the road by 4 am, got the train at 5:10 am. Got to Philly by 7 am (ish, it’s a blur at this point). Caught my first flight to Chicago at 10:30 am. Layover. Flight to Columbus arrived on time at 2:55. Met up with my friend Jen and much [...]
Wow. Back from the land of Disney, and let me just say, I’m very glad we went. I’m very glad I do not ever have to go again within the near future. Disney is its own special brand of near-hell, countered by just enough “magic” to make you keep going. 96 degree weather, crowds, cranky [...]
Well, I’ve been playing the Sims 2. I hear there’s a Sims 3 coming out in February, but not for Mac, so I’m making due with what I got. Stocking up, if you will, since I only play hard like this when my kids aren’t in school and I can’t get any work done and [...]

Parties involve lots of cleaning and cooking and general doing of things that need doing anyway (like cleaning the bathroom and finding like, mouse food from six months ago because the mice don’t live in the bathroom anymore) … And I like HAVING parties and going to parties and [...]
Ok, so yesterday I spent all day laying around, playing the Sims 2, reading, taking a bath, dealing with a puking kid, watching TV, and then later, played some Dance Dance Revolution. I’m tired today, still in my PJ’s NEW! AWESOME! And…I have to clean out a closet. Yeah. Exciting. I also have to think [...]
Yeah. So. A few years ago I began this SF trilogy that takes place during a cross country journey from Maine to California. A large chunk of book two and three takes place in the mid-West. Two has a huge “Mall of America” type thing in it, and book three features Yellowstone National Park as [...]
Yes, I know I promised an account of my trip, but today I’m blogging over at Love is An Exploding Cigar and you can see a little piece of my journey there! M
Cue the creepy music, everyone. I’m typing this from a bed in the Stanley Hotel, just down the hall from room 217. Yeah! Pretty cool. It’s a little side trip we hadn’t planned orginally, and I’ll have lots of cool pictures to share when I get home, but I’m taking advantage of the free internet [...]
