The Repetitive Nature of Things

Why does history repeat itself? Because we weren't paying attention the first time. It is hard being a parent and being forced to watch certain kids movies dozens of times in a row. I think we've seen Nemo 50 times, and we watch Cinderella almost...

Oscar Crackle

I sort of missed the Oscar buzz this year and then I missed the show. Here are few reasons why. First, why do the Oscars buzz? Why don’t they crackle? Why don’t they hum? I don’t like bees, so when buzzing happens I tend to avoid it. Second,...

I will not assimilate

As much as you hope that this is a 21st Century post Civil Rights rant, it is not. I need to stop multitasking. People who multitask do bad work. Put down your Bluetooth. Burn your bras. Revolt. Revolution. You name is not 7 of 9, it 758,961 of...

Lightning

Did anyone else enjoy the most fabulous lightning display last night?  It woke the monsters, so we opened up the blinds of the bay window in their room, and the four of us (five with the cat) watched the very loud intense storm for about 40 minutes. ...

Back to life, but not back to reality

Oh dear, I have missed you all so.  The real world is not nearly as fun as life with my cyber minions.  Don’t take offense.  Minion, like sweetie pie, is a term of endearment.  So here are the reasons I’ve been MIA for the last month.  ...

Hope Chest

My mom and sister were cleaning out the house this weekend and found an old chest of mine.  As a child I was not very tidy.  Clean, but not organized.  I’m the same way as an adult.  It was strange to see my meticulously preserved...

A Friend in Deed

Are you looking a good book or dvd or zesty seasonings?  But don't know which ones to choose.  My friend K. Hinton "avid reader" (Atlanta, GA) is Amazon Reviewer Rank: 157,104.  Last week, she was 600,000! She has moved up 450,000...

My Open Letter to Everyone

   In case you haven’t noticed, I have some cool friends.  They keep me up to date on everything that’s hot from  K-Fed to Leif Garrett.  They are also psychotic and constantly writing open letters to celebrities who...

Happy Monster’s Day

   Today is the day for the little monsters to tell me how wonderful I am.  Instead of telling me this with money or a real day off, they tell me this will pancakes.  I’ll admit they are my all time favorite pancakes, and I put...

May Days

I need help.  The April writing challenge is now over, and I can spend a little more time writing foolishness.  I haven’t tallied my pages since the second week, but I know I made good progress during the month.  I did a little title brainstorming...

Raining cats and...

It is a dark and stormy morning, but the thunder doesn't bother the monsters or cat.  One of each is nearby, finishing the night's rest.  I am, of course, awake.  I have written 15 pages this week.  About 3 a day.  Not bad considering...

April 1, 2006

   This is no joke.  Maddie is at the window.  The bees and mosquitos hover and dive over the shrubs.  I need to mention to Lewis where she got her name.  When you run out of mythological and literary names, you...
