It’s official!
Yup! I is officially a paid writer. *beeg grins* Who’da thunk it? And also – I forgot to mention, that I also have a piece in the current Alaska Women Speak titled “To blog, or not to blog” which I may toss up here as well. While not a paid piece, it’s uber cool because my article is right next to Nana ‘s article on the same subject. She’s a regular contributer there, and well to be next to her? It’s a place of distinction, says me!
I’m following in Schnozz ‘s footsteps too, and started keeping track of word count. While she’s writing the Next Great American Novel (you ARE and you know it!), my word count will include anything and everything – except blog posts. *L* Blog posts are easy, vomitous, spit up, stream (almost typed scream there – works) of consciousness writing.

So..
The pup made it till midnight last night – and was out cold by 12:15. *chuckles* But she did make it, so she was quite proud. We flipped over to TV, watched the ball drop, then went back to Smallville. What? Isn’t it every woman’s dream to spend NYE/Day with Superman? Question, though – was […]
The HELL?
My son just called – he’s been at a friends for 2 nights already, and just asked to spend ANOTHER NIGHT. My son. My 14.5 year old son. Is spending New Years Eve at the house with his best friend – who happens to be the brother of TGHLSB ! I smell a NYE kiss […]
Amused.
So, there’s a lot of shows that I love and watch obsessively, but there are others that have passed under the radar, that I’ve missed for whatever reason. Hurray for blockbusters Tv to DVD section, huh? In these two weeks while there’s been nothing on TV (No Heroes! No Lost! not even dancing with stars! […]
