Sometimes it just amazes me how fast time flies. My cousin K (who got engaged over 2 years ago) is getting married to her very long-time boyfriend D this weekend in Indiana. It’s hard to believe it’s really time already. G and I will be driving up there since getting a flight would be too expensive, especially since the wedding is far enough away from the city that we’d have to also rent a car. Unfortunately the drive is going to take us about 12 hours, which sucks, but it’s definitely worth it to be there for them as they…

It always makes me so sad when I hear that a plane has gone down. Especially when there is little to no chance of there being any survivors. I don’t know why it makes such an impact on us when there are thousands that die everyday in car accidents and from heart attacks. Maybe it’s just something about the fact that rather than being an individual or just a couple of people, this is a mass death. There is something powerful and haunting about knowing that over 200 people shared that horrible death. An Airbus 330, which is a modern…

Forty three days left until RWA National Convention! When I actually start to think about the fact that I’m going to pitch my ideas and my books to a senior editor at Silhouette and a New York City Agent, I start to freak out. My stomach starts to do flip flops and my mind begins to real with the possibility of finally doing something that could make a difference. I know there’s a chance that I could go to the conference and have nothing extraordinary happen. However, I have a completely different feeling about it in my tummy. I just…

Just wanted to send a huge and sincerely heart-felt HAPPY BIRTHDAY out to T, one of the best friends a girl could hope for. You deserve every happiness!! I so wish I could be there with you to celebrate and go crazy, but unfortunately not this year 🙁 Booooo! Next year, though! We’ll get buck nasty! (as my brother would say) I love you girl and I am wishing you a fantastic and fun birthday!!!!!!!

Have you ever noticed that some days having no money is okay? While other days, it seems like the worst thing ever? To be honest, G and I are doing just fine. We get our bills paid, which is more than a lot of Americans can say right now in this economy. We eat well. Just this past weekend we went to a movie and then to the mall where G bought me some very cute stuff at the Sanrio store. We’re not destitute or anything. But that doesn’t mean we’ve got money either. For the most part, we live…

I really do try to be good. My intentions are usually the best. But somewhere along the way I tend to fall short of that. This morning, for example, I intended to get out of bed around 9 and get to work just as if it were a normal day rather than a holiday. G is home so I knew it was going to be better than your average day, but I still planned to do work and get writing and laundry and things done today. When I went to bed last night, it was almost 3 am, so I…
