Finally!!!!! - Wednesday, February 21st 2007 6:55 AM
Yesterday was a great day!  After years, (okay, that was an exaggeration), the first book in my Finley Anderson Tanner (F.A.T.) series, KNOCK OFF, hit the shelves. ...
My Recent Bad Streak . . . - Tuesday, February 13th 2007 6:14 AM
Glossing right over the Valentine’s Day hype, I’m gearing up for the Academy Awards.  The past few days I’ve been the film version of a crack whore.  Before one...
Catching up and the Babes are Coming! - Wednesday, February 7th 2007 6:14 AM
This has been one of those weeks.  The kind where you run and run and run but don’t seem to get anywhere.  Part of my problem has been the running to and fro the vet...
Lazy Blogger Strikes Again - Saturday, February 3rd 2007 7:01 AM
Guilty – I’ve been crazy – one of those weeks where you play catch-up on all the things you’ve been putting off and/or a few things you’ve been wanting to do but...
Toes and Travels - Friday, January 26th 2007 7:00 AM
Today is surgical follow-up visit day.  I wish my toe worked better, but I’m impatient.  It’s probably healing right on schedule, I just don’t like the...
Good, Better, Best, Reality - Monday, January 22nd 2007 8:22 AM
Ahhh, The Breakers (good).  What an incredible weekend.  It began with an oceanfront massage and ended with a decadent brunch.  Thanks to Dana – who graciously...
Unselfish Acts and Selfish Gifts - Saturday, January 20th 2007 6:27 AM
So we know off the bat that when I say unselfish in any context, I ‘m not talking about myself.  I’m the want-it-yesterday type.  But, last week a warning light...
More Days Off . . . - Monday, January 15th 2007 7:24 AM
It’s Monday, the start of another interrupted school week.  Not exactly conducive to getting a lot done.  Not that MKL Day isn’t a valid holiday – it is. ...
Moving Day - Tuesday, January 9th 2007 6:07 AM
It’s computer migration day at chez Pollero.  Never a fun chore.  There’s the obvious – confronting all the accumulated dust in places that only get dusted at...
New Stuff! - Friday, January 5th 2007 9:03 AM
Yesterday was a great day!  A – I finally shook the flu.  B – My brand new computer arrived.  C – My house got cleaned.  D – My editor sent me the...
Dragging in the New Year - Thursday, January 4th 2007 8:19 AM
I must not like change.  Ringing in a new year doesn’t get me all atwitter with excitement.  Thing one in the New Year is taking down the Christmas Tree. ...
I’ve committed 2 murders this week - Friday, December 29th 2006 6:23 AM
Whistle taps for the not 1 but 2 computers I managed to kill in the space of a week.  One was mercy killing – that machine was old and tired. It had loved a long and...
Merry Christmas - Sunday, December 24th 2006 5:30 AM
I’m still not used to Christmas in Florida.  Hard to get into the full spirit of the season when you’re surrounded by palm trees, even if they do sparkle with holiday...
Serious Ho-Hum, Emphasis on the Hum - Thursday, December 14th 2006 11:09 AM
Prepare the rocks . . . I loathe the Christmas season.  Well, not so much the season as all the stuff required by the season and the inherently unequal division of labor...
Hi, High Seas and High - Saturday, December 9th 2006 6:30 AM
I’ve been a bad, bad blogger.  Life intruded – I cruised, and then had surgery, so I kinda fell down on the job.  So much for the hi, now on to the high seas . . ....
Attack of the Holiday Season - Thursday, November 23rd 2006 5:49 AM
Count me in on the people who didn’t send a gift to Tom and Katie (or Kate as HE now insists she be called.)  After all, what do you get a couple who has everything but...
She’s Having a Baby . . . - Wednesday, November 22nd 2006 5:21 AM
There are four people you don’t want to utter these words . . . “I’m having a baby.” Your ditsy teenager with the purple hair, pierced tongue and loser, unemployed...
Glitter Girls - Tuesday, November 21st 2006 8:04 AM
I went to the dark place.  Technically it was very bright with music so loud your fillings rattled.  A club?  A party?  Nope – a dance convention and...
Science Sucks - Monday, November 13th 2006 6:51 AM
What am I doing today?  When I should be writing?  Or at the very least, shoveling out my office in anticipation of Thanksgiving houseguests?  BTW, I’m not sure...
I’ve been fixed - Thursday, November 9th 2006 5:39 AM
Well, not me so much as my irrigation system.  I learned a lot about irrigation systems – more than I ever wanted to know.  The process served as a reminder to me of...
Day of Jubilee (День Юбилея) - Friday, November 3rd 2006 5:21 AM
  Good morning to all!  Or in Russian . . .   Доброе утро все! Why English and Russian you ask?  Okay, even if you don’t ask I’m...
What my cat learned from Law & Order - Saturday, October 28th 2006 8:10 AM
  Remember Jack the cat, the one that stupidly fell into   the toilet, turning half his snow white body neon blue?  He’s also the speech impaired...
When bad titles and covers happen . . . - Thursday, October 26th 2006 6:21 AM
With all due respect to my fellow Babes, I win the ugly cover contest - twice.   Maybe not the worst title moniker, though WANTED:COWBOY (yes, I do refer to it as...
The Saga of the First Sale - Friday, October 20th 2006 6:08 AM
This was originally posted on www.babesinbookland.com, the group blog I do with Cherry Adair, Leanne Banks, Traci Hall and Karen Kendall. . . .   This is FIRST SALE week...
Karen “Martha Stewart sans felony” Kendall - Wednesday, October 18th 2006 7:49 AM
  Lunch was incredible but man, did I feel outdone.  First, Karen Kendall – aside from being a fab author – has the most amazing house.  The girl knows...
