Happy New Year ...making this up as I go...

New Years resolutions a plenty...
One of them will be to blog more..
Actually, the resolution is to write more. Blogging is one way to keep that resolution without having to daily dive into the emerging octopus that my novel has become.
Unfortunately, I don't have much to say today. Yes.. it's like that.
So, I present a video I made for my 17th and 18th Century Dramatic Lit class last semester. It's a little.. how do I say?.. not for children…


Tell me your resolutions! I have to come up with a couple more by the end of the day and I'm not satisfied with the usual diet, exercise, drink less, etc... (esp since I don’t want to do that last one…)

Illuminating Some Bathroom Secrets

Though my husband insists it will lead to a future of night-blindness, I turn the light on when I use the bathroom in the middle of the night. I have good reasons.

1. So I won't fall into the toilet. Steve is usually good about putting the seat back down, but their might be a time when he forgets.. that would be the time I decided to leave the light off.
2. Snakes. There could be a snake in the toilet. Or spider... This has never happened in my lifetime but I always check.
3. Ax murderers. Ax murderers are also the reason I always check behind the shower curtain in every bathroom I enter. There could be an ax murderer lurking about, and I don't wish to be ax murdered with my pjs around my ankles.

Do you turn the bathroom light on in the middle of the night?

Can't see the light.....

15 graduate credits down, bazillions to go; however, I do have the next couple of weeks off for working on my own writing projects, going to the beach, reading loads and stuff purging (for the purpose of becoming more organized).
That was kind of a lame blog post so I'll tell you a tale.

There was a random mom at the playground a couple of days ago. She was hanging around with her own son who was playing with my Simon. I was reading my book "Twisted Sister" by Stephanie Hale, when I heard her say "Pencil?" I looked up, very confused as to why this woman would be asking me "Pencil?" What in the world did that even mean? She asked me more than once and looked very confused herself. "Pencil?" Cleverly.. I figured out that she must need to borrow a pencil. I said "Sorry, I don't have one." She said "No, your son's name is Pencil?"
WTF?!?!?! Hilarious!
Apprently, Simon (4) had told this poor woman that his name was Pencil and she didn't want to offend me by doubting him. How weird and funny.
Today he has changed his name from Simon to Spiderman to Police Officer. What a little goof. And.. here he is.. Pencil, on his birthday..

And.. just to be fair.. here is a lovely shot of my daughter Spatula.
