I’ve been doing so much reading because I’ve been sick and unable to do much else. We did get the girl to her doctor, so we know there’s no strep around here. The doctor wouldn’t rule out mono, but wouldn’t…
Review: Prom Nights From Hell
So, um, I tried to read this. I really did. I don’t know if it’s “paranormal romance overload” or the fact that I’d just finished reading material from two incredibly good writers (Sarah Monette and Elizabeth Bear), but I had…
Review: New Amsterdam
I’m all infatuated with yet another author, my friends, so I must warn you that you’ll be reading much more about Elizabeth Bear here in coming weeks. New Amsterdam is an anthology of connected stories twined around two main characters.…
Boo Sickness! Recipe, Word Geeking, Reviews
This not-flu or whatever is exceedingly tiresome. I should think it would be enough to live with the day-to-day stuff, let alone put up with this. Then again, nobody has ever claimed in my hearing that the world is fair.…
Happy V-Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day to all, whether you’re part of a couple (triad, quad, etc.) or not 🙂 Sambear brought home truffles and flowers! And iTunesiness! And then he went and cooked delicious steaks for dinner! My baby girl’s sweetie has…

What do you want to read or hear?
I recorded some more pieces, but need to wait for Sam to “produce” them (clean them up and add appropriate music). One of them isn’t something I would have chosen myself, but Todd, who created Live Readings, asked to hear…
Poetry: Edna St. Vincent Millay
I wanted to do something different for today’s Thing-a-Day, and I signed up to be part of Live Readings a while back but hadn’t recorded anything yet, so I’m posting this is both (all three?) places. What Lips My Lips…
Blah
This was the Monday-est Monday I’ve had in a while. Generally, the only reason any one day of the week differs from another, for me, is in whether or not Sam is at home. Today was different because I had…
Semester Is Past the Half-way Point!
And so far, I’ve only lost one point in my Project Management class, none in the other class. That was due to a stupid mousing error—bad hands! Oh well, if that’s all my hands cost me this semester, I’ll be…
