Drat, Drat, Drat!

I decided to Get to Work, Get Editing. Towards that end, I cleared my desk. And in doing so found another Taro draft, with Bly’s suggested edits on it. I never got that done. *sigh* But. I will not be stopped. A half hour at a time, I got the two MS combined. So. Now […]

NOT Serene

I’m not–’cause I’m going to see Serenity!  *dances around the room*  I’m going to see Serenity, I’m going to see Serenity… Hey, don’t go.  I’ll stop singing.

Head? Meet Desk

Argggglllleee… What a day.  One of those long, slow, Murphy is my best buddy kind of days. I woke up too early, but I couldn’t go back to sleep.  I was going to go in to work before taking Hope to the library for a bug presentation (I AM the coolest mom.  Sometimes) but she
