Work is kicking my ass this week, and that means that I haven’t been able to put in the time for posts here . . . but, I’m quite proud of the little bit of fiction that I’m writing over at Cameron‘s place. Won’t you check out my installment in the Story Circle?

Where I offer unsolicited advice about getting over blogstipation
I’m posting over at Missy‘s place, Wonder, Friend today, talking about how to work through inspiration constipation. Won’t you stop by?
Where I just close my eyes & type
Now that I’m bald, but bearded, I feel like Sid Haig. I’m really tempted to dress up in clown makeup and call everyone by Groucho Marx character names. Or just watch lots of Rob Zombie movies1. The bald seems to be working well in combatting scalpne – and the strange looks I get from passersby… Continue reading Where I just close my eyes & type
Where I answer Natalie’s eleven questions
So, Natalie of Mommy of a Monster (and Twins) fame (though I find the title of her blog amusing, because it really seems that Tater is a really great kid . . . while the twins are the actual monsters, but when you register a domain, you register it for life) put out 11 seemingly… Continue reading Where I answer Natalie’s eleven questions
Where, sometimes, a smile is enough
Not too long ago, I wrote about the things that I liked about myself and I challenged all of my readers to do the same. Near the very top of the list, if not on the top of the list, is my smile. I like to smile, and a smile is always quick to find… Continue reading Where, sometimes, a smile is enough
Where one last snuggle is needed
Mornings, sometimes, are impossibly difficult. I wake up impossibly early because I need to work out because, if I don’t, the voices in my head turn their whispers into screams and I spend the day at work huddled in a corner asking “is it safe?”. This would be fine if I went to bed at… Continue reading Where one last snuggle is needed
Where I ponder the things that I’m pondering
I loved Pinky & the Brain, truly. Honestly, anything clever that also makes me laugh will win in my book — and some of Pinky & the Brain was just spectacularly clever. Of course, my favorite part was always The Brain, asking Pinky, if Pinky was pondering what The Brain was pondering. The answers varied,… Continue reading Where I ponder the things that I’m pondering
Where I blather on about audiobooks
I love reading – I truly do, but the actual act of reading requires me sitting still for periods of time, and we all know that “not moving” is far from the standard in my life. So, I’ve turned to audiobooks in my life . . . while it’s true that I’ll get more from… Continue reading Where I blather on about audiobooks
Where I write about words and caffeine and dinner and stripper films masked as horror flicks
I’m fully aware that there are people who wake up and don’t feel the need to expel half of their body weight through their sinuses. I envy those people. I’ve actually been running pretty regularly . . . something “clicked” in my head and I realized that I was making excuses to stay inside to… Continue reading Where I write about words and caffeine and dinner and stripper films masked as horror flicks
Where I hope for some new Instagram filters
If you know me in real life, you know that there’s a greater chance to catch me without pants than without my iPhone1. I like to keep the iPhone handy for a plethora of reasons . . . I’m, technically, “always on call” for work emergencies. Sometimes, I know of a particularly evil play with… Continue reading Where I hope for some new Instagram filters
