Irritability, Meet Shark
One of the kids has been leaving the heat on overnight, which, added to flannel sheets and my favorite green blanket, means I sweated almost to death last night and the one before. It’s definitely time to change out of said flannel sheets. Contrary to popular belief, winter is over. Boxnoggin, however, loves the heat. …

Cinnamon Roll Prospects
It’s one of those mornings. I’m barely vertical and even getting coffee down the hatch seems an impossible task. At least it smells like rain soon, and yesterday I had the great good fortune of getting my finger and toe claws into The Poison Prince. I even got my teeth into that fucking book, and …

Get It Early
The ebook version of the Roadtrip Z omnibus is almost out! You can get it early (tomorrow instead of the 9th) by buying direct on Gumroad if that’s your fancy, or preorder it through Barnes & Noble or Kobo. Amazon won’t let you list an ebook for preorder unless you use KDP, so sorry, Amazon …

Pure Heaven
Last week my writing partner and I played hooky in Portland, and there was a stop at Everyday Music. It’s not a bookstore, but it still makes me happy. Got to take your joy where you find it, chickadees. Enjoy your own weekend, my hoopy froods, and may it have something nice to roll around …

Thursday Treachery
Yesterday I walked to Ye Local Auto Parts Shoppe to pick up a new battery for my ailing chariot. I was saved a bit of bother by the fact that I’d written down all particulars and taken a picture of the battery in question; the one they’d ordered for me was the wrong type but …

Sigh, Tuesday, Sigh
It’s Tuesday. I got out early for a run, but there was still someone with their damn dog unleashed. It’s like a sickness with these people, every time it’s bloody sunny they wander out without properly caring for their dogs. Asshats. *clears throat* Good morning, all! The mass-market PB size of Steelflower in Snow is …

Spring, Cartoons, Sprung
Saturday was rainy, Sunday sunny, which worked out well since I ran on the former and could lock up the house on the latter. I hid from the day-star and watched a chock-ton of Looney Tunes. In the old house, I would fold laundry and write while several DVDs’ worth of cartoons played on the …

Anxiety Bunny
The Princess brought home Kinder eggs from a pre-Easter sale. The Little Prince loves opening them, so he cracked mine for me, and cleaned out the sugar as a bonus. This little fellow was inside. The Prince and Princess both had birds, but I got a bunny with a wheel in his head. Spin the …

A Whole Free Mood
It’s been a busy morning, my coffee has gone cold, and the diffuser in my office is burbling away with a little sandalwood and jasmine, mixing with petrichor coming in through my half-open window. The neighborhood is quiet, except for crow-calls and some squirrel chitterings. This morning I saw a giant black-feathered beast sitting next …

Finally Meme’d
It’s very warm for March, and you know what that means. Bees. I will be heading out to run soon, and I’m sure they’re waiting to crawl into my hair, gonna attempt to nest in my mouth, just can’t stop thinking about putting their feelers in my nose–and all while I’m trying to run. This …
