I had a lovely surprise in the mail – a package from a bookseller. I didn’t order any books so I wasn’t sure what it was. Opened it up to find a signed, limited edition of Woods and Waters Wild from my amazon wishlist! (And yes, that is his signature! ) Charles de Lint is…

New birthday shoes!
Mom and I hung out yesterday since she’s going to be out of town for my birthday. We hit the mall and she had me pick out some clothes (got two pairs of shorts) and a pair of shoes (seen here!) They’re super cute and they’re actually Fossil, which, if you know me, you know…
Let’s Go Bolts!
Congrats to the Tampa Bay Lightning who, with their 5-3 win tonight over the Washington Capitals, swept the series in 4 games and are advancing to the Conference finals! …of course, Love’s favorite team, the Boston Bruins, also won tonight putting them up 3-0 against the Philadelphia Flyers. They need only one more win to…
A Momentary Flash of Grief
At my job I contact households associated with us. I can't really say how they're associated without giving away what company I work for but it's all established and on-going relationships. (Rather than sales calls or people who don't know who we are, etc.) We call the households to do updates and confirm our data…
Humbug
[whine] Do I really have to go to work today? But I don’t wanna! [/whine] Just getting to walk out the door. But, much like yesterday, man am I not feeling it. I’m so not feeling it, I’ve got the I can’t even be bothered to fake it mood right now. Like, man, I so…
Heartsy
I recently found Heartsy – it's a daily deal site like Groupon but it's ALL handmade items at Etsy shops. New daily deals every 24 hours. Shops give at least 50% off their normal price. (So you might get a $50 voucher for $20 or $25 for $8 or something. Just depends on the specific…

Happy Birthday Mika!
Today is Mika’s birthday. Well, in reality I have no idea what actual day she was born but this is the anniversary of the day we adopted her so it’s close enough for me! Our tabby girl came home with us 8 years ago today and she was about three at the time so today…
Numb Hand Probably Not Good
I woke up this morning with my neck/shoulder on fire. I have permanent damage in my neck and unfortunately, as I get older, it gets worse. Today was one of the really bad days where it's just miserably painful; the kind of painful you have to really work at not crying. Tomorrow, Mika has her…

Birthday Countdown
I have a little countdown widget on the domain blog but I forgot that it won’t show up to those who read me on livejournal, so I’m making a post about it since they crosspost automatically. Last year’s birthday was really sad and quite a downer. I was just getting over the sudden and unexpected…
Too Soon For Summer
It’s just too damned hot outside here in Florida. It’s been really hot for weeks now. We’re having near or above record temps all month long. I knew when we had an especially long and cold winter things would be miserable come summer – I just didn’t know “summer” would arrive in April. Here’s today’s…
