Oh, I almost forgot! I bought myself a toy:

remote control shark!

Quick, yet very important question:

Does it play the theme from Jaws??

I just heard about a baby whose name was inspired by Tw!l!ght. I...don't feel good about this.

Unfortunately I think there are a lot of babies with TwiNames.

Well, as much as it pains me to say this, Jacob and Edward (or Eduard, if you prefer) are valid names. Or at least they used to be. Even Bella isn't *bad,* per se.

And in 10-20 years as the child grows up, no one has to know what they were named after.

In theory.


Some of the other names might be questionable, though.

Also, why is it snowing?

More specifically, why is it snowing on the one night so far this winter when I do not want it to snow, when it has not snowed any of the other times this winter when I have wanted it to??

I will admit to having read all four books and not entirely hating them. But the reason I got interested in the first place is that my only uncle on my mom's side... His name was Edward Cullen.

(House improvement project 2 is to renovate the basement. I plan to put as many shelves down there as humanly possible. Project 1 is a new roof, which has to come first.)

I just replaced my roof. It was ouchy.

3. are so numerous.

And yet, you still see a stack of books on a table to the left of that shark.

Although when I first built them (yay insomnia and powertools!) they actually held all my fiction. Now it's only about 1/5th. I need a lottery library too.

I told you guys I ran into someone with a nephew named Optimus Prime, right?

why is it snowing on the one night so far this winter when I do not want it to snow, when it has not snowed any of the other times this winter when I have wanted it to??

That's why.

Welp, it's 5-8 inches of snow in the next 36 hours. Dire. I think I may need to make emergency cinnamon swirl bread tomorrow.

Oooh, harsh. It makes me crave hot chocolate just to think about it.

Oh, let's face it. Just being alive makes me crave hot chocolate.

That word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Also want to mention that I totally dig your avatar. English, sarcasm, and profanity? You're totally speaking my language, babe!

I'm the rare writer that doesn't drink coffee. Hot chocolate, though? Game on.

Heh. Anyone who supports all three languages in my avatar can be my friend. (Shhh. It's a test.)

No coffee? YES! I'm not alone anymore! i don't drink coffee, either; it does weird things to my heart.

BTW: i'm stealing your avatar for my facebook status. Such a nice counterpoint to the glurge my daughters post.
