  • Taking a break

    I’ve been working on the MbHW script most of the afternoon, but my concentration was horribly interrupted by Sara. That girl has the worst taste in music. I mean, Hillary Duff was bad enough, but now she’s listening to Raven Symone (probably spelled wrong). Remember her? She was the kid they threw onto The Cosby…

  • Web site update

    Not a major overhaul, and no real news to regular readers of this blog. But, I did update the Welcome and Bibliography pages of my Web site. Let me know what you think. There are still things that need work, especially on the Store page, and I found multiple little errors on The Werewolf Saga…

  • Storm of the … week

    We had a big ol’ storm move through early this morning. Remnants of it are still passing over, but the high winds are gone. When it woke me up and I turned on the TV they were talking about wind gusts over 70 mph. Incredible lightning, too. And lots of rain and a bit of…

  • 1985

    Have you heard that song 1985? My wife is living it tonight. She went with her sister and her boyfriend and Alex to a concert of 1980s hair bands. Now, I love ’80s hair bands, but these guys — Quiet Riot, Ratt, Cinderella and [gag] Firehouse — would be hard pressed to collaborate on a…

  • July 1

    Look at that calendar. It’s July 1. That means I’m on my last month of severance from Oklahoma Shitty University. Can’t really talk about today’s job interview yet. Other than to say I was more right that I expected in yesterday’s assessment. A branch of of a certain online university finalized the date and time…

  • This’n’That

    It’s been a busy couple of days. I’ll start with the job situation. I learned yesterday that, even if all goes smoothly, it would likely be November before I could be certified to teach. That won’t work. I’ll still pursue it, but I gotta have a job before then. Interestingly, I have a job interview…

  • HWA, Stokers, etc.

    No word meters today. I didn’t get squat done. I revised, combined, added to a few chapters of The Puppet King yesterday, but didn’t add enough to bother with the meter. I tried working on a newspaper article today but didn’t get anywhere with it. The other day I was going to comment on the…

  • Van Hagar still sucks

    Just had to say that. I’m listening to Best of Both Worlds and skipping over everything with Sammy on it. I’ve always said Van Halen without Diamond Dave is like a bull without balls … a bum steer.

  • Oh See You

    Just got a message from the editor I freelance for. She’d accidentally sent my assignment for this deadline to my old OCU address. It never bounced, so she didn’t realize she’d sent it to the wrong account. Until today, when she began to question why she hadn’t heard from me. So, it would seem that…

  • 20 years

    I was 19 when I got married. I was working part time at a Safeway carrying out groceries. Kim worked part time at a drug store; she was 17, but just a couple of weeks away from being 18. (No, she wasn’t pregnant.) I gotta say this 20th wedding anniversary was harder than the 20-year…
