This is why I tend to watch the same things over and over on Netflix. Because if I discover something new and I like it... I don't watch TV regularly, but when I do, I dig a trench and take a fortified position. I would keep up with TV shows, but it's hard to watch… Continue reading One More Episode

Death by Candlelight
I'm not one of those people who thinks aromatherapy can cure what ails you, but they say scent is the most evocative of memory and emotion. All I know is that the only guy who ever broke my heart was in the army, and to this day I have a somewhat complicated relationship with the smell of shoe polish.
Mr. Relevant to my Interests
I got my flu shot on Friday, so I gave myself Saturday off and had a nice knit and Netflix binge. But I watched North and South, which I figure since I write romantic type stories, should sort of count as work. I mean, I really do love a good, scowly hero in a romance. And… Continue reading Mr. Relevant to my Interests
So. Many. Updates.
Stuff that's going on today and this weekend. In other news, there will be more news.
The Thrill of the Hunt
Back in the days I had an allowance and few financial responsiblities, I briefly became a collector of things. The seeds, I suppose, were planted by my childhood collection of Star Wars action figures (which met a tragic end in an alluminum storage building one blistering Texas summer), and the all star cast of Barbie and… Continue reading The Thrill of the Hunt
Four Ways I’m Kinda Colorful

Okay, so, unless you've been living under a rock, you probably know that for adults is A Thing. A Thing that I was doing before it… Continue reading Four Ways I’m Kinda Colorful
Trendsetting again, darn it. (Pen and Paper Edition)
One thing I know about myself is that my outside world has to be pretty tidy for my inside world to work properly. Which is why I was an "analog" journal fan before it got dubbed with that eye-roll worthy name.

Otters, Chester Zoo, and my dog goes wild.
So I guess baby otters are a thing now, judging by my Twitter/tumblr feeds, though I have loved otters since way before they were Cool On The Internet. *pushes cute-nerdy-girl glasses on nose* When I lived in Corpus Christi, I was a member of the Texas State Aquarium so I could go hang out and watch… Continue reading Otters, Chester Zoo, and my dog goes wild.
Frozen Things
So. I finally saw Frozen. Now I know what all the fuss was about. My God, what a great movie. It had all the things. Elsa is so badass (this is my favorite word lately) and she just broke my heart, and then there was that song. So many feels. It was pretty much the exact same… Continue reading Frozen Things
