Election Day – The Primaries

June 6, 2006

The Axis of Evil

June 2, 2006

Apologies for the delay in posting… A certain situation at work has been detonating all week and I’ve been consumed by the fallout. Truly nasty stuff. I hate politics.

The Joys of Downtime

May 28, 2006

I have had the loveliest weekend… This was the first weekend in the entire month of May where I didn’t have to fill up the car with ridiculously overpriced gas and drive up North or over the hill for some kind of function. No family obligations, no meetings or appointments, just 72 hours of uninterrupted […]

Nostalgia Junkie

May 17, 2006

So last weekend I was sitting down to write, and was having a difficult time getting into the proper headspace. This happens to me frequently — a consequence of trying to write romance novels when one is romance-deprived in real life, lol. Last year when I was suffering from this problem, John gave me the […]
