Tick Tock Tick Tock

I woke up this morning not being able to tell if the almighty “fate” is trying to say something to me or if my body’s just frustrated by a lack of settling someone down.
Let me explain.   The alarm sounded at 7, which it always does because I like waking up @ several intervals before I [...]

Why My Cat Is Weird:

It’s been four months since I first brought Mon Petit Coeur home, which makes her 6 months old already!  She’s gotten really big and started to develop quick a personality.  Mostly, she’s gotten fat and more cunning, although also cuter, more endearing and still very playful.
I love her, and I think she’s starting to accept [...]

NaNoWriMo- Day 1

Hi.  I know I haven’t written much in the last two weeks.  All the anticipation of the novel and furiously reading as much as I can, has left me pretty tired and mentally worn out.
BUT today is the official start of National Novel Writing Month, and it’s going pretty well actually.  I’ve already penned 1761 [...]

Please Quarantine Your Kids

I think probably a lot of people go through this at some point in their lives, but the parents with the screaming kids between 0 and 6 are just a pain!  I went to the new Academy of Science this past Saturday with boy to see all the awesome exhibits.  [Clarification: so I could see [...]

Let’s see if we can squeeze in a super quick post!

In the last 24 hours, I’ve had 3 coffees, 4 shots of espresso and another quad shot coffee…  it’s been hectic to put it lightly.
But in the midst of this economic orgie (actually more like gang rape), it’s nice to be busy.

FIRST! In honor of NaNoWriMo, I’m writing my first novel ever.  Yes yes, millions [...]

I’m Writing a Novel

For the first year, I’m attempting to write a novel for NaNoWriMo. I always thought about putting down my history on paper. It’s not egotistical… Okay maybe just a bit. More than that, I’m interested in my past and the lifestyles of generations before me.
I never really knew what my grandparents went through. They don’t [...]

Cleaning Out My Intestines: Day 3

It’s actually going pretty well.  Minus the constant hunger and urge to run to the bathroom every 30 minutes, things are going fine.  Yup, pretty dandy.  I’m just going to keep saying it until I believe it.
What I want RIGHT now:

I’m really excited about the Vice Presidential Debate tonight.  For some [...]

Pick Up, Chew, Swallow

It’s a sequences of actions that I sorely miss.  I’ve done Ramadan before and have had to fast from sun up to sun down without food or water (even Chapstick is iffy).  But it’s a whole different ballpark when you’re not eating solid food for 9 days (I’m starting with my trainer on the 10th [...]

Lemon, Cayenne & Maple Syrup

Surprisingly, they taste pretty good together.  I’m on Day 1 of the Master Cleanse… well actually Morning 1.  It’s been a mere 4 hours, since I woke up, realized that it was 6:30 a.fucking.m. and forced myself to drink a quart of salt water flush (it makes you poo) and sat there waiting to… you [...]
