I took some time today to do things I like to do. Our holiday is just about at an end and while I've done some stuff I wanted to, there's a few things I really wanted to take time for & hadn't. Before the holiday is over and I've gotten back into the stresses of work I want to make note of some of my more memorable moments. Sometimes it feels ( Read more... )

Interesting thoughts on pricing your ebooks by JC Hutchins. I enjoy Mr Hutchins' work, haven't read enough of it yet. I read Personal Effects: Dark Art. Maybe one day I'll pick up 7th Son, or ask for it for a Christmas/bday gift ( Read more... )

Can't sleep. Didn't help to have buzzsaw at my feet in a playful mood when I was trying to doze ( Read more... )

I've tried to spend the weekend so far recuperating. I have a lot of housework to catch up on from the last few weeks, need to get back into my daily cleaning routines. I had a 3-hr nap Saturday. I've worked a lot of late nights and am done with it. We're in a slightly better position work-wise than we were the beginning of the week but aren't ( Read more... )

Please signal boost this and/or consider picking something up from Freya's Fire's Etsy or one/both of Ysabetwordsmith's books.

Freya's Fire Etsy belongs to someone on my LJ flist. She makes cool kick-ass cat toys. These things are well worth every dollar (and more, really she should be charging $12US or so for the kickboxers!). They have a ( Read more... )

It's after midnight & I can't sleep. I think part of it is thinking of work, part is thinking of stuff I want to get done around the house. My brain doesn't switch off easily sometimes. At least tomorrow is Sunday, I can take a nap if I need, or maybe sleep til 9 or 10. I got in the habit of these non-sleeping nights to put on a small lamp, plug ( Read more... )

I'm finally starting to feel better after the other night and those darned kidney beans in the slow cooker. :S I didn't get as sick as C but my stomach did take a few turns and at one point had been making noises that should only come out of a monster on a b-grade horror movie. Wow. The last time my stomach made those noises I was in Nepal and ( Read more... )

I'm trying to find a website and I thought I picked it up off someone's post or comment from my Freinds' List but can't remember who/when/where. I thought I bookmarked it and can't find it. :( And because my memory really sucks I can't remember the name of the company or site ( Read more... )

Some of you may have seen this on your f-lists, sorry if it is a repeat! For those of you who haven't, here it is. I'm not buying anything from Amazon.com until they sort this out. I'll stick with Ebay, Goodbooks or just do without for now ( Read more... )

I finally finished the huge request I got in on the 19th. Technically it should have been done in 24 hours. :( It took me over a week. And the amount of documentation that I sent out was more than 3 inches thick (I'm not exaggerating).

That was the highlight of my day. I won't talk about the rest of it.

Here's a really interesting article by ( Read more... )
