My Avatar isn’t so smart either. Here she is in a skirt, riding a horse made out of ice. That’s right. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 2009 In the last week I: Got bashed in the head with the door knob while bending over to pick up the paper as the very heavy door was swinging shut…
My Blog
How I Finally Stopped Worrying And Learned To Love The Blog
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 05, 2008 First of all I must apologize. I’m on a deadline for final edits of STAND BY YOUR HITMAN so I don’t have much. I know you are expecting some story where I tell you how I was easily outwitted by my girl scouts/children/mailman/cat/the Illuminati/etc. but all my creative energy is going…
Leslie Langtry – Sock Monkey Sprinkle Emcee
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 14, 2012 Two weeks ago, I hosted my niece’s sprinkle with my mom. A “sprinkle” is what you have with the second kid – you’ve already had a shower – so now you only get a “sprinkle.” I can only imagine that with the third kid you have a “mist,” followed by an…
Leslie & Jana Are Going On Vacation
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2011 One week from today, Jana and I will be passed out on a beach, drunk and incoherent, possibly raving about some bastards who are responsible for it all. And I, for one, can’t wait. We’re going to the NINC or Novelists, Inc. conference in St. Pete’s, which is in Florida –…
Leslie Langtry’s Fabulous Bucket List
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2010 I’m a simple human. I have simple needs and wants. Is it so wrong to want to be spoonfed Godiva Belgian Chocolate Ice Cream by my own, personal pool boy? No! Here then, is my humble bucket list: 1) Learn to play bassoon. I love the bassoon. And it wouldn’t be…
Leslie Langtry’s Lovely Lady Lump, Part Deux
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2010 So, the orthopaedic (funny way to spell that) doctor I saw the other day told me I have a ganglion cyst. He took (well, his much lower paid assistant actually took) x-rays. I looked at them but didn’t see anything. And yet it looks like my wrist is nine months pregnant…
Leslie Langtry’s Lovely Lady Lump…
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2010 Okay, not exactly what you were looking for. What did you think you’d find? My wrist has a lump. Or maybe it’s a hump…like Igor. Anyway, my doctor is referring me to an orthopedic doctor. X-rays have shown that it is NOT: Broken bone. Really? My doctor thought maybe I hadn’t…
The Chimp in the Grey Flannel Suit
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2007 I loved yesterday’s blog. Maybe that’s why I’m so late in posting today – because I want you to enjoy it THAT much more. Actually, it’s an excuse for forgetting it was Wednesday – which also means I didn’t get the garbage out again. Damn. I was at the Yarn Shoppe…
American Survivor Blogzillas
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 05, 2007 Wow. Those Monday holidays really throw me off. Now that I’ve realized it’s Wednesday (and not Tuesday – as my addled brain would have me believe…because it’s evil) I’m barely posting on time. Technically, there are 3.5 hours still left in Wednesday – so maybe I’m okay. I’ve been watching a…
Don’t It Go To Show, You Never Know…
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 2008 Well, the big day is almost here – my second book – GUNS WILL KEEP US TOGETHER – comes out Monday! There’s something a little surreal about your second book. That’s when it hits you that you have raised the bar too high for yourself to get over. . .ever. ….
