I’ve always been somewhat snobby about audiobooks. I’m a reader. And that means reading words on a page (or in my case in the last six months, on my Nook screen). I always thought listening to books was a cop out…

That would be me. Actually, I haven’t been slacking as much as I have been living life. The highs, the lows, the hey- this isn’t so bads.
Anywho, while updating to the most current edition of WordPress, I realized that there were some real comments among the barrage of spam. If your comment is just posting, it’s because I decided to go through them individually instead of doing a mass delete, as I have in the past.
And if you’ve left a legit comment, and it was deleted, my apologies.
And yeah, I’m …

At some point, you stop and realize that you can’t control the chaos, and since you know you’ll never be prepared for the next upheaval, you decide to revisit your master plan. Or create a new one. Whatever works for you.

I’m very much alive, just not writing.
I have many stories to tell, but life is screwing with me right now.
So, I’ll edit and post Part 2 to A Complicated Matter later this week.
And maybe one day you’ll read about the unexpected journey that has been my life these last few months.

I am doing the Happy Dance.
Sade is releasing a new cd on Feb. 8th.
It will be endlessly looped for days on end- loudly. I wonder how much notice I need to give the neighbors?
Maybe Sade and I can road trip together. Have a mini vacation. Just me and Sade. In the car for hours on the open road. Like Thelma and Louse, but without the crazy shit, and  with non-stop singing.
Gotta go. I have much to do before Sade’s arrival.

Dear Santa,
I’m pretty sure that you don’t get many letters from grown-ups, but I thought I would just put it out there, in case you were feeling a tad bit generous towards the over 40 crowd this year.
Really, I hope you don’t want me to get into the whole naughty/nice thing, ’cause, we kind of know that’s all relative.
I’m not asking for much, just one of the following:
The Nook, or course. B&N says it’s not available until January ’cause they have pre-sold their loot. But you know, you being Santa …

Go. Enjoy time with your family.
And eat.
And sleep.
And walk it off.
And eat some more.
Or is that just me?

While this isn’t the best video quality, this is the clip that had me all in at the beginning of the season.
Happy Friday.

None of my high school teachers were this fine.
I’m just saying.
