Thirteen Weird Things I've Blogged About


1 . How Much Blood a Vampire Has to Drink Before He Kills You

Sunday I wrote the longest blog I've ever written about this. It's actually a rant, but it required research. :-D

2 . Medieval Torture

I needed this for the book I'm working on. I read things that I just don't ever want to think about again! Things that are sooo not going to happen in my book, but I did get a nice grasp on what kind of torture is going to happen.

3 . The Evil Yule Cat

Did you know there was an Evil Yule Cat? It eats you if you didn't get your work done in time for Yule!!!

4 . A Pink Ring

Actually I did this one for my husband. It's so he'll know exactly what I want, when he actually gets his booty out there and buys it!

5 . A Ladybug Tattoo

I want one!!! I found the cutest one ever and that's the one I'm gonna get!

6 . Mutant Weeds

I had a weed in my yard that was white when it was supposed to be purple. I'm intrigued by weird things. hehe

7 . Lucky Horseshoes

This was actually inspired by an episode of Piggly Winks. I know. I know. I need a life!

8 . A Near Death Experience

Okay, I didn't almost die really, but it was scary!!! I was driving on the ice and did a full 180.

9 . My Passionate Love of Picasa

It's a photo viewing program from Google. It's so fun!

10 . My Theme Song

I've claimed a theme song for my very own. Suddenly I See by K. T. Tunstal! I love that song! I wanna be like the girl in it!!!

11 . The Games Vikings Play

I needed it for Arianna Penndragon.

12 . Writer's Insomnia

Those times when the characters are screaming so loudly in your head that you have no choice but to get up out of the bed and write down what they're saying.

13 . Rebelling Characters

I've actually blogged about this several times. Sometimes my characters just don't obey me!

Hmmm...I sure wish I knew why there were X's and Smiley's on my Mr. Linky thing...That is so weird!

Isn't Writer's Insomnia awful! Of course I do prefer it to writers block. ;)

What an interesting list, Lesley!

I picked up a book about medieval times, customs and torture about six months ago for research but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Sounds eeky!

Love the idea of an evil yule cat. LOL

The ice thing--yup, I did that when we lived in Chicago. What a heart-stopping experience!

13 of my Favorite Quotes from Fiona O'Sithein I'm too darn sleepy to be creative tonight so I'm drawing on my ready-made list. Not to be confused with the one I did about the first lines of the chapters in Fiona. Those weren't nearly my favorites. Is it narcissistic to have favorite quotes that you wrote yourself? When I'm giggling my head off at something I wrote, my husband always looks at me kinda funny. Oh, well if it is, then here is me reveling in narcissism. :-D May you enjoy them as much as I do. 1. Fiona: “What? You think just because I don’t have any magic like my brother or super strength like you people that I’m useless?” 2. Bonnie: “He’s not a heretic, is he?” Fiona: “Isn’t everyone these days?” 3. Fiona: “No one wants to be the one to deflower the king’s daughter.” 4. Fiona: “Yes, Beltran, you’re a vampire. How could anyone forget it when you’re reminding them of it ten times a day? You are the only vampire I know who seems to obsess ab...

Thirteen Things that take My Breath Away 1. This little Guy... Need I say More? 2. Eden Falls at the Lost Valley This picture doesn't even remotely do it justice. The first time I saw Eden Falls was in the middle of the summer after a big rain storm so there was water absolutely gushing from it! It made getting into the cave at the top somewhat more difficult than usual, but it was absolutely beautiful. I had never seen anywhere like it in my life. I thought places like that only existed in wall calenders! 3. The Ocean The vastness of it. The sound of the waves. The smell of it. That humid, cool wind that blows off it. The way it moves. Pretty much everything about it! *Lesley desperately needs a trip to the beach* 4. The Ozark Mountains My home! The very first time I came here I just knew this was where I wanted to be. I grew up on the delta with nothing but rice fields and flat land as far as the eye can see. There is a place on the drive up the mountain where you come around a c...

Well, I had been planning on putting up 13 pictures from my vacation, but my computer crashed yesterday and has to go to the doctor. I hope they can fix it, because I haven't backed up those 450 pictures I took. :-( I did upload all the really cute ones of Nicky to snapfish though, so at least there is that. This brings me to the question I have for y'all...Does anyone have a good gremlin banishing ritual they would like to share with me??? Just this week, my fridge, my car and my computer have all stopped working. The car was just a battery problem, and it has been replaced. I still don't know what is wrong with the computer or the fridge yet though. Without pictures but still in honor of my vacation... 13 Things I Did in Denmark Fed the ducks, swans, and geese at Damhus Lake. Nicky loved this! He was absolutely entranced by the birds. His favorite part (and keep in mind, he is a boy) was throwing the bread so that it landed on the swans back and then laughing hyst...
