Hi, ya'll. I have something I need to tell you. And before you ask, no...I haven't seen the premiere yet. Which is kind of the problem.

"What is it about fear and the unknown that pulls so passionately at the human heart? Perhaps we are drawn not to the darkness itself, but to the resolution, the overcoming of what we most deeply dread. After all, the more terrible the struggle, the greater the victory when it comes at last. Presented in this anthology are twelve remarkable stories ( Read more... )

Hiya peeps.

I hope the hiatus has been treating you well. It's been...interesting for me, to say the least. I'm having a bit of a rough time processing everything that's been going on. I'm usually very good at compartmentalizing, but I think that my compartments might be full.

It took me awhile, but I was able to finally reply to the wonderful ( Read more... )

To my all my LiveJournal friends, acquaintances, and those of you who simply nod, smiling, as you scroll by, I wanted to wish you a warm, happy, peaceful, and safe holiday season -- no matter what holiday it is you do (or do not) celebrate during this time of year. I am blessed this year to have my little family with me and -- for once -- healthy ( Read more... )

So, it turns out I'm heading out to another country once more for my job. On Monday I leave for Paris for a 4 days, 2.5 of which will be spent attending/supporting another training bootcamp.

I'm not getting much sympathy about the international travel (not that I expected any), and believe me, it's not the destination, it's the timing. I just got ( Read more... )

Translation: Happy Christmas and a good New Year!

I wanted to be more encompassing of the diversity on my f-list, wishing you all 'happy holidays' -- but in Gaelic, that basically translates into 'have a good vacation' so...the sentiment is sincere regardless of your faith. I truly wish you all the very best this season and hope for nothing more ( Read more... )

So, I pretty much bit off more than I could chew this month. In other words, due the surplus of other commitments I made, I didn't 'win' NaNoWriMo 2011.

I know it's not technically a contest, but that's what they say if you hit your 50K word mark because you won in the promise you made to yourself. I won't lie; I'm bummed. I really wanted to do this ( Read more... )

I wanted to give everyone an update on our progress for the Team Challenge program for the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America and the half marathon. The hubs and I set up a blog to make it easier to follow our progress (and save you from further updates).  We both post our thoughts and experiences as we continue our training as well as how ( Read more... )

Not only do I have one of the best f-lists on eljay, but there are some pretty amazing people in the world.
