Whoops and Changes


As you can see - things got a little weird over the weekend. I did something that broke my blog. I'll be switching over to Wordpress soon, and that will hopefully end some of the spam issues. Big thanks to Alison and Walt for the rescue. Once things are up and running, I'll fill in the blanks about the weekend conference.

A Taste of Honey (On Your Spam)


Oodles of stuff to do today to get ready to go to Salt Lake City tomorrow. Girlie stuff - the nails, the eyebrows, other assorted maintenance issues. Then there's the washing of the clothes.

We had such a fun night last night. We'd just bought one of those gallon jugs of honey and I used the damn heavy thing to put on top of the tofu so it could squeeze the water out. Well, darling Jessie decided it looked like a really neato toy, so she not only got it down off the counter, she opened the top! Honey all over our couch. I mean great huge puddles of sticky honey on the back, the cushion, under the cushion. In fact, there's only a 1/4 of the honey left. The rest we've (and by that I mean mostly Dotes) been trying (and only partially succeeding) in cleaning up. Weeeee! Good thing she's so cute. It totally saved her ass.

We've (and yes, again, I mean Dotes) set up the wireless thingee on the laptop. Have no idea if it's going to work, so you may or may not hear from me over the weekend.

Also - I'm getting slammed again with spam. (may all spammers get honey in their underwear every day of their lives) I can't block it because they change the url every time, but I'm getting 4 or 5 every single day. Jeez, I hate that so much. I mean, what's the point, other than the annoyance? Even if I left it, do they actually think someone's going to click it and buy, believe, read what they're trying to push? Sheesh.

Triumph and Tofu


For those who caught my post at Romancing the Blog - I've queried an agent, gotten a response, and I'm sending out the partial today. Yay me! What about you guys? Did you do something you've been putting off? Did you screw the fear? (hehehe)

As for my brilliant idea about showering/napping yesterday to get brilliant answers to story problems…I showered. I napped. I got nothin.

Oh - check this out - my Dad's turning 80 next year and my sister is treating the whole damn gang of us to a 5 day cruise in December. Whoa! She has no more details, like where it's going or where it's leaving from, but hey - a 5 day cruise! In snowy December!

Speaking of snow…it needs to stop now. I have to get out Friday. Anyone have any clout with the snow gods?

On a completely different topic - I'm making tofu for dinner tonight. This is a first. I've never cooked with tofu before. Very interesting. I found the recipe on Epicuious.com. I'll report back with results…however, if you're a tofu person, and have a faboo recipe (it's firm) that you think I should try, let me know. Because really - clueless here.

I've also started chapter 1. Yeehaw!
