Randomness on a Monday
- Steve puts the baby to sleep. It's the funniest thing. I can put in Stripped Down and take her and sort of slow dance around the room while it plays, and it works every time. She's usually asleep before we get to "Just Another Goodbye."
- As my mom pointed out earlier, my birthday is in 9 days. Yeesh. I'm still pretty meh about it all. Pretty sure I know why, but I'm not going into that here. Anyway. Someone IM'd me the other day asking about gift ideas and I wasn't home (yeah, being in Daytona watching 43 guys make a whole bunch of left turns will do that), so here go. My Amazon wishlist. No biggie if I don't get anything off it. I'm not expecting it, so any non-family gifts will be a pleasant surprise. :)
- For those following along at home, I'm up to the 6th book in that vampire series. The names just keep rolling, y'all. Add Mhurder, Rhevenge, and Tehrror to the list. However, I'm enjoying her style and the way her vampires talk, interact, and think is entertaining. I mean, really. How can you NOT enjoy a series where all the guys never use the word 'shoes'? They refer to them as 'shitkickers'. And don't even get me started on the tattooed pretty boy with the goatee and mojo hand. *g*
- The last point reminds me. That series has actually given me an idea for a vampire story. Not Claimed related, but original. However...
- I want to write, but fear my muse is dead. :( There are so many ideas (new and old) tumbling around in my head, but every time I open Word to try to write them, I come up against a wall. I really need to work on Endgame. And then there's the long Faculty fic idea I've had...the Boondock Saints idea...the Marton/Orlando based original idea... *sigh*
- The graphic inspiration just keeps coming, though. 16 new wallpapers this time of Adrien Brody, Clive Owen, Christina Ricci, and Rachel Weisz. Same style as the last batch, but I'd still love to hear what you think. There's also a random wallpaper thrown in there that's posted over at dA.
See them all here.
