Book Review: Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer

Amazon Prime recommended this one to me (how Amazon manages to recommend anything to me given the weird and random things I buy is really beyond my algorithmic abilities), and for once the interwebs read me correctly.Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer was completely worth the time.

Errant Vegetables In The News

I love Huffington Post. No, I didn't include a link. Yes, that's on purpose. Not because it's an example of fair journalism (they aren't), nor because of the quality writing (it often isn't), nor because the site is so full of integrity* (definitely not). *this is a site that doesn't pay any of the writers.… Continue reading Errant Vegetables In The News

Love tells painful truths. Romance gives an engagement ring. Love takes a bullet." - The Queen, Tiffany ReiszTiffany Reisz doesn't… Continue reading Series Review: The Original Sinners (Tiffany Reisz)

Cold Medicine Induced Hallucinations

I think I may have spelled "hallucinations" incorrectly.Huh. Blogger says nope. Well all right then.I've been a miserable coughing shell of an actual human for the past three weeks or so, with a cold or allergies or a malicious and truly disgusting phlegm alien taking up unwelcome residence in my lungs.

Filed under: UTTERLY worth the 6am flight.

In T-Minus (wait, did I just write the equivalent of T minus minus? Whatever: you know what I meant) three days + one business day melting in Houston...I get to see The Bloggess!Live and in person (which may mean under a table, which I completely understand and support).I can't wait to see how many Rorys… Continue reading Filed under: UTTERLY worth the 6am flight.

I Killed Shelob. Sort of.

I get pretty bored with the regular target-targets at the range. Apparently I'm not the only person who feels that way (and watches too many SyFy monster movies), because at Gander Mountain I found THESE: Yes, I DID make it extra-large so you can see ALL THE HORROR.

Who Needs April Fools When There’s Texas?

As ridiculous as this post seems, it's all 100% true. Seriously, I can't make this shit up.Across from one of our favorite neighborhood restaurants is one of the many lingerie/toy shops in the neighborhood.

Oh Skymall…you dirty dirty bird…

I went home (to the tundra) last weekend. It was an adventure. First, I was hit on by the dude next to me, Chad from downtown Minneapolis, on the plane. Chad insisted I'm 10 years younger than I am. Score.For me. He did not score. Bummer for you, Chad, but you were quite charming and I… Continue reading Oh Skymall…you dirty dirty bird…
