WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2007 Okay, I realize that sounds harsh. I can laugh about it now. And I apologize for taking so long to post. Today is, in fact, my birthday (I’m seventy-two – or at least it feels like that) and I’ve spent the last two days fighting a losing battle with my old…
My Blog
A Phew Filosofical Questions…
WEDNESDAY, JULY 28, 2010 Since the other week when I wondered why RAGE doesn’t burn calories, a couple of other questions have popped into my head. I don’t ask Mr. A’s opinion anymore. One time a friend and I were having some serious e-mail back and forth regarding a shoe on James’ Cameron’s Titanic documentary….
How to Spell M-I-D-O-L
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 2009 I’m on a rant today, folks. Sorry about that in advance. So the British have decided to drop the rule, “I before E, except after C” eh? Mighty big of them, considering they foisted that stupid rule on us in the first place. Not that I ever paid attention to it,…
Oh I’m Knitting Up A Ski Mask For You…Not An Ordinary Ski Mask Will Do…
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 07, 2009 So, on one of our daily rants to each other about who should die and who should be our slaves, Deadly DeLeon mentions she’d like a ski mask. Of course, I offer immediately to knit one for her and ask her what color she’d like. She tells me turquoise is her…
I Survived Girl Scout Camp 2009
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 09, 2009 I’ve blogged about this trip before, but in case you are new, let me sum up. Every year, I take my lovely G.S. troop camping over Labor Day weekend at the local G.S. camp. We’ve been doing this (sadistically) for six years. Okay, back to the story… This year we took…
I’ll Show You Mine if You’ll Show Me Yours – Part Deaux
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 05, 2007 I get enough questions about the books I wrote before I sold to humiliate myself here, on this very blog. As I’ve learned in this business – very few people sell their first or second books. I sold my fourth complete manuscript – which my agent says is totally average. That’s…
I’ll Show You Mine, If You Show Me Yours…
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2007 I have finally unpacked my office. Kind of. Sort of. Okay, so what you don’t see in these pictures are the four boxes still on the floor out of sight. Anyway…I remember there was this one site once where you could look at the offices of famous writers. It was really…
What The Hell Is That?
TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 2008 It’s been a weird week. Not that it isn’t ALWAYS a weird week for me, but this one is really strange. First of all, I have this plant from outer space in my yard. It’s sooooooo Little Shop of Horrors. I have no idea what in the hell it is. The…
Leslie Langtry Holds A Tarantula
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 2010 Actually, this is my daughter holding Rosie, the Chilean Rose Tarantula. I went first. And because I’m the only one in the family who takes pictures, I’m never in them. And that’s not a bad thing. We were in Denver this past weekend for a military thingy. We managed to scrape…
You Asked for a Photo of a Shaved Dog…
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 2009 YOU have won a FABULOUS Prize! No, you haven’t won the dog. With as much blood (I cut myself a couple of times) sweat (did you know dog hair sticks to sweat?) and tears (I’m pretty sure the dog cried) as it cost, I’m not giving Muppet away. No! Two of…
