After a very very long hiatus, the Monday Muse is coming back. Now, I can’t promise I’ll have my peas and carrots together enough to post a new muse each Monday, (I am trying to finish a novel here folks…and run a business, and take care of two red headed females (myself not included in…
1. Seeing as many websites and blogs host their giveaways on Friday, I often include links to a giveaway or two on the FFF. Today there are some great ones: awesome prizes for an awesome cause: first up, from Today’s Mama: they are giving away an 21.5″ iMac with iPhoto and iMovie and iWantToWinIt! The…

I forget what about our conversation prompted him to recall the story, but he said something to the effect of, “You know, like that time I had you sew underwear on Dilbert.” Now, you’d…
I made it! I crossed the NaNo finish line! Wooo-hoooo! I will be back soon to bore you all to tears with my trials and tribulations during this month of writing, but for now, I have to get my butt out of the chair and go work out. I spent waaaay too much time sitting…
