Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Gratitude, Days Thirteen through Seventeen. Fell off the wagon on this while I've been sick and delirious, so for the past few days I have been grateful for:. Being warm enough to attract the affection of my cat. Having a good excuse to skip the Academy Awards. Today I am grateful for:. Waking up to sunshine. A return to my normal sub-human body-temperature (*). Getting back on the wagon. Alas, this means the loss of cat affection. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What's all this then?

For a long time I didn't know what this blog was supposed to be. Somewhere along the line it became what it is—sharing the little things that are making me happy. I hope those things make you happy. (And maybe it's time for a new photograph.). View my complete profile. Skulls in the Stars. Breaking the Chains of Gravity, by Amy Shira Teitel. Half Empty and Half Full.

Monday, May 3, 2010. Officially a Non-Issue in 2010: "Gays in the Military". The title from Yahoo! Says it all: "Afghanistan Troops Go Gaga With Their Own 'Telephone' Remake.". OK, we have two choices here:. The US military is full of gay guys. The US military is full of straight guys who love Lady Gaga. Either way, the issue of whether openly gay men would be accepted in the military is officially over. Gays in the military. Sunday, May 2, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What's all this then?

Saturday, April 16, 2011. I'm closing the blog again. Two reasons. The other reason I'm closing the blog is because I don't like the type of writing I do here. It's just an extension of my type-A public persona, and I'm working on digging a bit deeper. That's really hard, and it's not something I can do online. This isn't really goodbye, as I'm sure I'll see almost everyone on FaceBook, but I do appreciate the support over the years, especially during my NaNoWriMo fits. The Girl Who Rides Bulls. For a lo...

Thursday, April 21, 2011. Caring for My Pets, Complete Walk-Through. Thanks for agreeing to take care of our pets! It's really pretty simple once you get the hang of it. Just follow these instructions exactly. You have entered the FOYER. There is a DOG1, DOG2, and KITTEN. The KITTEN is crying. There is no sign of CAT. You are in the SMALL PARLOR. KITTEN is crying. You are in the DINING ROOM. KITTEN is crying. DOG1 looks like he might explode. You are in the LIVING ROOM. DOG1 and DOG2 pee on the TULIPS.

Saturday, May 15, 2010. 8220;At the Gates of the Bureau of Culture and Refinement”: a fragment. Please ignore the sign over the gate. That is a joke. Every time we scrub it off, some wit spraypaints it up there again. The last thing we want you to do is abandon hope. We have never needed to advertise, but if we were going to put up a sign, it would be in Dutch, not Latin, and it would say:. Wie mooi wil zijn moet pijn leiden. Which is best translated as: "Those who wish to be beautiful must suffer.".

Friday, March 11, 2011. Signing for UPS packages. Not having to sue my ex-boss. Dan Simmons: He's just smarter than all of us, isn't he? Thursday, March 10, 2011. Gratitude: Days Twenty-Three through Twenty-Six. Feeling too busy to blog. Realizing that I can spare the time to be grateful once a day. Guest bloggers Baron and Tybalt: "Having a human at home during the day to operate that tricky door knob.". Sunday, March 6, 2011. Gratitude, Days Eighteen through Twenty-Two. A continuous stream of meetings.

Friday, April 8, 2011. This Is Now My Life. Everybody who wants to write for a living needs to read Karen Maezen Miller's little article " They Don't Pay Us to Write Books. They don’t pay us to write books. [I]n relative terms we write for free. What they pay us for is to sell books. A writer who doesn't grasp that important aspect of this business will become bitter. I'm not bitter, by the way. I'm excited to be doing this book.). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What's all this then? View my complete profile.

Saturday, December 4, 2010. Another thing I like: SkullyFlower. I met the artist, Dragon Green, at a not-very-successful art festival(*), and I bought the SkullyFlower. Books I suppose the writing could use some polishing, but folks who like NerkyMarg's surreal observational comics will probably enjoy this too. Oh, and Dragon has terrific merchandise. Seriously—If your daughter is not wearing hand-made felt SkullyFlower barrettes. What kind of parent are you? Wednesday, December 1, 2010. For a long time ...
