I made some progress last night on the novel. At about midnight, I thought of a couple of life experiences I wanted to draw from but couldn’t remember the details. Specifically the internship I had during my first quarter at USC. I looked through my journals, put them in chronological order, and was surprised toContinue reading “Reference material”

On schedule
And by on schedule I mean I’ve reached the point when I feel like quitting my 30-day novel exercise. I’m woefully behind in my word count. Awfully far behind considering it’s the sixth day. I’ve got about 3,000 words and I should have 10,000. I’m hitting “word count” after each 100 words and thinking there’sContinue reading “On schedule”
Already behind
I’m in stage four of a mild cold: sinus congestion. (stages 1-3 are: throat sensitivity, sneezing and sore throat). I don’t think I’m going to be getting any worse. I planned to take yesterday off as a sick day to take my dog to the dentist. I consider this a completely appropriate use of sickContinue reading “Already behind”
Situation: Lunch
I have a weird food issue. Frequently, I don’t know what I want to eat and nothing sounds good. At work, this manifests itself in my not eating anything at all until the problem becomes not only figuring out what I want to eat, but also getting to a place that serves it to meContinue reading “Situation: Lunch”
The Good Girl’s Guide to MMA
Now, I don’t want to drop names or anything, especially since I doubt a single one of my readers has any idea who these people are, but Rob and I have trained with the two dudes who battled it out for San Jose on Saturday night. Here I am with Cung Le, who broke FrankContinue reading “The Good Girl’s Guide to MMA”
Blue is the new red
When I was young and rebellious (I was never rebellious), I heard that red cars were more likely to get pulled over. Don’t believe it, kids. I owned red cars for 16 years, and I was pulled over exactly once while driving one. I was pulled over twice in my dad’s blue jeep. (Plus, heContinue reading “Blue is the new red”
Grave dreams
The other night, I had one of my standard getting-ready-to-go-somewhere-but-I-don’t-have-time-or-enough-space-in-my-bags-to-pack-all-my-shit dreams. It had a couple of unusual twists in it, but the one that doesn’t really make sense to me is that I was looking out the window from a bathroom in the building where I used to work at the University, and there wasContinue reading “Grave dreams”
This is how we roll
Hey pet owners…
Anyone know why this item would be on clearance at Dogs.com? These bowls are made of 100% Melamine, a strong durable plastic material that stands up to every day wear and tear. Unlike other pet bowls, melamine reduces scratches and nicks that trap harmful bacteria. They’re dishwasher safe, won’t fade and feature non-skid rubber feetContinue reading “Hey pet owners…”
