Sugar pot pie... where did that term come from... I'm terrified to google it because who knows what I might find... I don't even know what the hell it means. I don't like sugared pot pie. I like sugar... I like pot pie. Well I like home made pot pie, a lot. Sadly, for the … Continue reading goodbye sugar pot pie…
can someone dim the house lights?
This will be the last post about my Ignite presentation... almost certainly. I had intended to put up my slides over the weekend but then a funny thing happened... I decided to try to take it easy a bit... I know I know, where do I get off making holiday plans and reading books to … Continue reading can someone dim the house lights?
Ordinarily…
I try not to post on the weekends. Saturday and Sunday at my house are set aside for family time. For K and Mike and my dear friends that I often don't have much time for during the week... So what is is that's causing me to break my weekend postlessness? A beautiful woman, a … Continue reading Ordinarily…

when we last saw our heroine…
Last time I was at Ignite I was anything but nervous. No where near knots. As a matter of fact I was down right chipper to attend the event.

I'll brush out my hair, smear on some lipstick and cross my fingers before I get in my shiny black chariot with my handsome prince and head to the … Continue reading tomorrow

Walking down the street a couple days ago bundled up in my wool coat and warm fuzzy boots with gloves on holding the hand of my shivering little girl on the way to her school in the morning, it occurred to me that October was much too early for it to be that fucking cold. … Continue reading the weather
NaNo No No…
Last year I successfully started and completed NaNoWriMo (which I affectionately call Bert). It was insane, strange and a little stressful but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the camaraderie. So when it came time to decide if I would do NaNoWriMo again this year, I chose to go ahead with it. Gladly. Excitedly. And … Continue reading NaNo No No…
