Now that I'm back to using the Mac, I can start downloading TV again. Hooray! That makes me so happy! You can tell I'm happy because of the exclamation points. Sorry. Maybe now I can see The Vampire Diaries and the newest episodes of Supernatural!
I saw this random recipe in an ad for brownie cookies. You have to add stuff to the brownie mix that I couldn't remember so I had to improvise. They aren't bad! Maybe I'll eat less if I can't see the whole pan of brownies. It's worth a shot.
Now that I've finished one fic in time for a deadline, I have 5 more days to finish another. *headsdesk* I sure wish I could do these things without a deadline breathing down my neck. Odd how I can't think of a single idea until I'm days out. This one is well within my abilities so it should go quick.
The great news (for me) is that next week I'm on a quasi-vacation. VBS in the morning and I only have to go into work two days. That leaves a lot of "me" time! Hooray! My goal is to get some writing done. I won't waste my time!
I had fun this weekend with my sisters but I'm a bit put off with a friend of ours. She doesn't have the best relationship with her husband but she's always been there for her kids. This summer, she's decided it's time to be more selfish and she's joined a softball team. You don't think that's selfish? It is when you say yes to every single tournament and game and have to ferry your kids out. She had the car seats with her at the game today so instead of going with their Gramma they came to our house. I love these kids. Really, I do. But I hate that they could care less that they aren't with either of their parents. This just does not bode well for the future.
I'm on the third Devon Monk book (thank you soooooo much, Steph, for making sure I had the whole current set because I went right from 2 to 3!) and loving every single word. This is the kind of book that could keep you from sleeping (although I'm in need of sleep these days so it hasn't been that much of a pull for me). If you haven't read Magic in the Blood and Magic to the Bone, you really should.
