Yes, I'm a Negligent Blogger

By -
But at least I have a very good excuse. See the ticker on the right side of the screen under works in progress? Yup, that's right. If I'm not throwing up I'm taking a nap, preforming my day job, rearing my other two children, or working on a rewrite of Click Yes to Submit. So that's why I haven't been blogging like I should be. Or keeping up with others' blogs. Sorry!

I've also started working on Christmas presents. I found the perfect thing to make my Mommy and I've started it. I also have a list of fantastic ideas for some other people. I really enjoy crocheting. It's very soothing.

I've made 5 Cthulus and I think I'm going to make one more in neon pink for me to keep at the office. I'm also contemplating little amigurumi super heroines for myself and my bestie. Mine will be WORD GIRL! Able to Google the answers to Microsoft Word Problems quickly and easily!

I love the Cthulus. In my Second Life guise, my avatar had a title she wore throughout the presidential election season -- "Cthulu in '08!"

Of course, the rest of us wouldn't have been long for the world if he'd won... heh.

Sounds like you've got your hands full! Enjoy :)

Oh, congratulations, Lesley! What happy news! :D

And I just adore your darling little crocheted creatures. So so cute! I used to crochet many years ago when I was pregnant and when my daughter was little and really enjoyed it. :)

Yay for your WIP! And I really love all your multi-colored Cthulus. Pale Bluey is my favorite.

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...
