Acoustified

Winding down on a Friday night with some acoustified EDM. There is something amazing about the translations of a loud club banger to an intimate, moving unplugged.   "You Got to Go" - Above & Beyond ft. Zoe Johnston       "Spectrum" - Zedd ft. Matthew Koma

Mainly medical update

As I mentioned, I've been having pain and numbness in my right side and pretty much just dealing with it. Wednesday, my left hand started feeling numb so I got a concerned and called my doctor's office to make an appointment. I saw him yesterday and he agreed that the neuropathy was getting a bit much.   When I started on the latest chemo drug, Revlimid, we decided to have me do the full strength of the pills, 25mg per day. A bit part of this is that I'm only 48 and should be able to tolera

Tomorrow's the big day!

Finally! After over two years of writing only co-works; I was able to finish Ice Fairy all on my own and turn it into a series to boot!   It goes up for sale tomorrow at three different sites; Smashwords, Amazon, and All Romance Ebooks.   Homework and life are slowing me down on progress on other items; but those will get done too...I promise.

What a day

So today has been totally weird.   First I was the only member of my team in Des Moines as the others were out on a job today. I've had an escalated issue yeh big boss gave me to do and it hasn't been easy. Well today I asked someone from her office to try and look something up for me and she got the same results so she asked another person to look it up. Mean while it dawns on this guy that it was his customer. He calls me asking what I am doing as he's been trying to fix this account. My res

It's the little things

So, thankfully today and yesterday have been "good" days. I'm up, able to do simple things around the house and the pain is at a reasonable level. Really happy, especially as Saturday and Sunday were horrible days - where the pain was so bad, I basically spent almost all of the day in bed. I'd get up, let the dogs out, feed them, have a bowl of cereal and take my meds (including pain pills) and then head back to bed. Only time I'd get up is if I had to pee or to let the dogs out.

Admiration, Apologies, Gratitude and Apprecation

I am currently working on, and hope to finish in time, a long-form short story for entry in the GA Spring Anthology. It is incredibly difficult and time consuming to winnow the chaff from the best grain of words I lay down on screen. My appreciation for what my partner does as part of his career and to provide for us has grown with leaps and bounds the longer I attempt this amazing thing. He is an art historian and author, co-author, collaborator and contributor of books on art history. I am pro

A Pie. With lots and lots of food in it.

Magpie's got a case of the Man Flu, which means that he's mostly lying on the couch whimpering and watching QI. When I asked him what he wanted for dinner today, he said, 'Lots and lots of food,' with roughly the coherence of your average hungry baby bird. I figured I'd better fix him a calorie bomb to give him some energy.   So I went to the shop, had a look around and came up with a cunning plan.   I'm very fond of Shepherd's Pie and its cousin, Cottage Pie (which is made w

Young and Gay in Putin's Russia: Documentary

So, I stumbled upon a documentary covering the effects of life for young LGBT people in Russia under the current climate.   http://www.gay.net/video/2014/01/15/watch-vices-heartbreaking-documentary-young-and-gay-putins-russia   (DISCLAIMER [taken from the site]: Viewers be advised. This documentary can be incredibly difficult to watch, and some of the footage is extremely graphic and disturbing. Parts of the documentary may be too intense for some viewers.)   I'd like to say I'm shocked at

Life Is So Unfair

My friend Josh. He's 23, and since he was about 10 or 11 years old, he's been dealing with the complications from his heart transplant. He should have graduated in 2013, but he had to drop out in fall 2012 to deal with hodgekin's disease. Then he couldn't come back for fall 2013. Now it looks like he can't come back at all, and he's planning on coming back down to pack up his apartment, because health-wise it's better for him to try and finish his degree closer to home. While he's not back-on wi

New format for Case:Black

Case:Black is an experimental work in progress.   As I have been working on it, it has sort of evolved completely on it's own a 24-esque format.   I didn't intend it to happen that way. It came from the short scenes built onto a tight timeline.   I would really like to go back and re-format the whole thing but GA's author/story page... ummm I'm not sure how I would go about it.   I have decided- why fight it? The ticking clock/24-esqe format is a natural fit for the story. From now on, I

eBook Review: Strain by Amelia Gormley

Strain by Amelia C. Gormley My rating: 5 of 5 stars   *COMING SOON*        Feb. 17th!   Many, many times I search for dystopian stories only to fail to find one that captures my attention. I want the sense of 'the world has ended' drama, the gritty and often dark reality that the comfortable has disappeared and survival takes a level of guts and bravery not everyone has.   Strain fulfilled every single one of those dystopian desires. We have governmental mishandling, virus-releasing,

A little humor

Friday next week I am back in the field with a sales rep who works out of our Cedar Rapids office. I emailed him this morning for the details and got his out of office. I was on a call with a co-worker and when I spun around in my chair he (the sales rep) was behind me. He said I got your email. I said that's nice you didn't have to come all the way here to tell me that, a simple reply would have worked.

Potpourri of cherry trees and curry potatoes

Today was a pretty mixed bag, and meh, that's not too bad overall.   Healthwise, it started off really poorly. I've been having nerve pain, likely caused by the current chemo drug I'm on (technical term is neuropathy). I've had it in various forms before, but in the past it has been in my feet and ankles. Now one of the worst parts is in my right neck/shoulder, the back of my head and worst of all, my right ear. It got so bad yesterday that I kept taking my glasses off (the arm of the glas

2014

Well, it's 2014 and for me that's meant a whole bunch of changes. Right after the New Year I made my second shift in jobs in three months, the bakery job I'd taken over the holidays proved to be temporary, but in life, I've always believed that things happen for a reason and I had been looking for a reason to pour myself full bore into freelancing and writing. For the past 2 weeks I've been submitting photographs and material everywhere i can, getting my small home office set up and making conta

Don't be an information dumper.

Trials and Tribulations is my first attempt at writing a story. Needless to say, I had a lot to learn and I was lucky enough to come across two people, Wayne and Louis, that were willing to help. Wayne has been teaching me how to make the story flow better and Louis has been teaching me the laws of writing.   I have also sought other sources to improve my writing skill to better my telling of Trials and Tribulations. One of the awesome sources I found was Editor-Proof Your Writing: 21 Steps T

The Boyband Era Playlist (Mid-1990's to Early '00s)

Alright...the Boyband Era. Let's get started.   1.   2.   It's actually debatable if you can really call Hanson a boyband, because they actually played their own instruments and the like, but I'm including them because they had a big influence in bringing pop music back to the U.S.   3.   I call this, "The Video That Jumpstarted Puberty For Me."
