Reaching for a research note this morning, my elbow hit the edge of my coffee mug. Coffee spilled EVERYWHERE…. except onto my laptop. *waits for heart to resume normal operations*

The pterosaurs exhibit at the NY Museum of Natural History is cool, if that’s your thing (it’s totally my thing). And yes, I had to Be An Adult and let the kids play with the pterosaur flight simulator, rather than shoving them aside to show ’em how it’s done. Adulting sucks, some times. Although I’m
So this was the weekend I had blocked out to do a hard run on SILVER. Â Friday afternoon I laid in supplies (ready-to-eat meals and several bottles of wine), updated Anti-Social, and took a declared Twitter-cation for 48 hours. And then I set to work.

Fannish recursive: Orlando Jones’s tumblr just ‘liked’ my tumblr reposting of Orlando Jones’ tweet on Twitter. Another St. Patrick’s Day, another day I avoid Manhattan and any bar anywhere. Because having a drunk frat boy in a $500 suit puke green beer on me once was enough for a lifetime. The rental car was duly

It means I can let myself start writing the first draft. I mean, as soon as I get everything else off my plate.  *drinks more coffee* (51% doesn’t guarantee that the project WILL fund. But it’s where the reins on my story-impatience
Gone and back again, reunited with the cats and planning to spend the rest of the day putting my house in order for 2014, in oh so many ways both literal and metaphorical. I hope your celebrations were enjoyable and safe, and you woke this morning feeling good about the year to come. Stolen from
There are many people who despise mornings, who consider the only 6 allowable is 6pm (and don’t even speak to them of 5!). I may, possibly, pity those people, although I respect their dedication to the slow slothful waking process and emulate it on regular occasion. But to miss the early morning, especially in winter,

For my blood family. I not only love them, I like them. (most of the time) For my freedoms. For the right of freedom of person, of religion, of thought and speech (just try to stop me, NSA), and the freedom to vote to keep those things free for the next generation. For my friends,
Reposting a blogpost from November 14th, 2003 Originally posted by suricattus at suricata’s big adventure And so it begins. This weekend, the d.y.m.k. productions website will go live, and I’ll begin the Great Adventure of being an editor/writer for hire.I’m simultaneously terrified and thrilled, which I’m told is very healthy.
