Some of my favorite people in the world at the Hobbit Cafe–Tom, Alan, Dan, ‘Nathan, John, Matt, Rhonda, and Lindsey.

I made ‘Nathan pose for this one and only later realized the reflection of the lights provided a new perspective of Gandalf. He will defeat you with his laser eye!

I’m sure there are things to say. Certainly when one has turned thirty-five a significant number of times, she ought to have some wisdom to offer. There is this:


There is a direct correlation between number of menopausal hot flashes and how recalcitrant a bobbin is.

Hope that helps.

Live long and prosper. =)

Also, if you haven’t seen the long version of the “Spock” Audi commercial, it’s been one of my favorite things. Thanks, Tim, for the link.

Still no repaired camera. Barbie and I have been forced to take photos with the iPhone.

Semi-met this dog today while he waited for his girl to come back. Whenever I see dogs tied up like this outside businesses, I don’t approach them. I just park near them and wait for a while to make sure someone’s coming back for them before I sound the alarm to the dog rescuers I know.

Long before I saw his girl heading his way, he did; that tail began wagging like crazy, and that’s when I heard her call his name. He was a very well behaved and patient boy.

He’s living it up with good friends on the other side of the Gulf Coast, where the beaches are prettier. Seems like the perfect way to turn whatever 35 plus 8 is in Becky Math.

Happy birthday to my big brother David!

Can’t trust that day.

Still no repaired camera. Still no new prescription glasses.

However you became a mother–birth, adoption, foster, marriage, or love–have a great day. May the people you love treat you well.

I finally checked out Polyvore just so I could add some make-believe to my day. (I miss my camera.) It suddenly occurred to me that I can use this to dress a character from time to time. Would these descriptions ever make it into fiction? Who knows. But a writer always knows tons more about a character than she shares with readers.

Here’s my first Polyvore board, called “Coffee Date.” I made it without even looking at price tags, and that’s how I ended up with a chick in an eight dollar pair of hipster sunglasses and a $228 pair of distressed jeans. Back to the drawing board. =)

Coffee Date
