Angry

I'm back to 276. For a few days I pushed it up to 279, but this morning I was back to 276. Difference? Haven't partaken of the Mexican food for two days and the day before yesterday I had Albondigas, which is a really, really good soup.   The mood stabilizer seems to have kicked in. I'm kind of blah most of the time, but there seems to be an edge of anger that hangs over me like that famous sword. I feel like exploding at the slightest provocation, like this morning when the wife commented tha

Transitions and Attitude Adjustments

Has anyone ever heard of a transitional bisexual? Well, for those of you who don't know a transitional bisexual is a condition of sexuality transitioning from heterosexual to bisexual. I believe myself to be one, and I think I'm to the point of being completely gay. I think part of my issue was accepting, and I have. I even made the change on my profile. I still see a few exceptions like Halle Berry and Carrie Underwood, but for the most part, I like men. Even with such exceptions, I could never

*le sigh*

So, I'm wondering how people are reacting to my anthology story since I haven't gotten a review yet. I'm happy that I put it out there, but I'm still curious. A Butterfly's Dream is rather well recieved, which is a pleasent surprise to me. I'm glad that they like that story. I'm thinking I'll post Finding Someone on eFiction eventually. Maybe after the summer anthology, or when ever I remember to do it. Which will probably be next year sometime knowing me. Okay, so I've done the bored out he

just a wet dream for the webzine...

Ryan Ross writes some amazingly kick-ass lyrics... just saying. Besides, Steve thinks he's cuter   So, anthology's up! YAY! I do hope you all enjoy all the reading there is to do this weekend. So far, I've read Faust, Lesfeuxdemoncoeur, DWrites, Libby Drew, Wrath of Magneto, and mine (repeatedly... have I mentioned what it takes to self edit??) All of you have done amazingly! I'll try to go and leave individual comments in your forums tomorrow, but I just wanted to say so.   Take a chance,

It's SOOOOO good

My life is just so amazingly good. I mean I already knew that, but the last couple of days it's really been hitting home or something. It's like I just bounce around for one enjoyable activity to the next and even when less fun stuff happens it never seems to hang around for very long.   The last three days have just been phenomenal! I had the most awesome, easy, fun assignments at work (sub-teaching), like I literally had like 3 hours off that I was getting paid for both days. LOL, and I

Religion

I wanted to bring this to my blog, because what I'm about to say isn't going to be allowed in the forums. Remember, before proceeding, that this is my blog, and I am not obligated to respect your position or opinion on any manner. There's a good chance that I probably will, though.   I want to take this opportunity to respond to a certain number of posts in the Soap Box without starting a flame war or taking the thread off topic. You see, when the conversation starts to veer away from the ori

A bean bag for my Garmin

So I'm thinking about getting one of those bean bag thingy's to hold my Garmin in place on top of my dashboard. I was actually determined to buy one last night, but I left my check card on my dresser and didn't have enough cash on me to do that and be able to buy gas so I could drive to Smithfield and back, so I had to wait. Then I thought about how important it is that I have one. Actually, it's really important, because right now, using my Garmin is a pain in the ass. I place it in my cup ho

I Write Sins Not Tragedies.

Panic At The Disco's, That Green Gentleman (Things Have Changed) Things are shaping up to be pretty odd. Little deaths in musical beds. So it seems I'm someone I've never met.   You will only hear these elegant crimes, Fall on your ears from criminal dimes. They spill unfound from a pretty mouth.   everybody gets there and everybody gets their way. I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her, Now I'm the only one to blame.   Things have changed for me, and that's okay. I fe

Just some thoughts...

You know, when I left for a small amount of time, the "Caught" thread in the Q&A section of the lounge was open. Then, I come back and it's closed. No explanation, no nothing. I can understand that it was closed and I don't really mind it, but this is the SECOND frickin' time that it's been closed. The first time, I know why it was. This time, I have an inkling on why, but that's mostly because I've read the last two pages of pages. By reading those, I've figured out a possible reason as t

Climate Change- please get it right!

Climate change is very real and it has been going on in cycles since the planet formed.   Three Orbital cycles that affect climate: Orbital Eccentricity: 100,000 year Cycle Orbital Tilt: 42,000 year cycle Orbital Wobble: 25,800 year cycle   Orbital Eccentricity: the earth's orbit around the sun forms an ellipse. Every 100,000 years or so the ellipse "flops" into a pattern that changes solar exposure. This trend is working is way to a peak this century.   Orbital Tilt: The t

ARGH! - No I'm not a pirate

Well, now that I've vented a bit, I feel like I'm finally calm enough to write a post that all of you can read   I'll start with the exs. It seems that everyone of my exs seems to be contacting me lately. Well, not every one of them, but a lot of them. First, the most recent ex continues to send random texts asking me what's up or if I'm still awake at 2am. Some people sleep you know! Not me, but if I was normal, I'd probably be in bed!   Then last night I got a phone call from Michael. If

Stop saying 'pencil'!

So if anyone else says the word 'pencil' to me today I swear I'm going to scream!   All day it was:   "Mr. Face (no that's not my real last name, but I'm not giving it out over the internet), can I go sharpen my pencil?"   "Mr. Face, so and so stole my pencil"   "Mr. Face, my pencil broke again"   "Mr. Face, I need to borrow a pencil"   "Mr. Face, I lost that pencil"     I swear it got to the point that I was fantasizing about having this giant bucket filled with pre-sharpened pen

One word; One million definitions....

Maybe it is the season, maybe it is something else, but there seems to be a lot of talk about love these days. Whether the topic be about friends with bennies, or taking a significant other for life, the underlying emotion is love; to me at any rate.   It's such an innocuous word, love. All to often thrown around at a whim, or a panging of the soul, but what does it mean? Sure we all have our own definition of the word, our own belief, or idea. Often, however, it isn't a idea that translates i

how do you spell blalalalallalalalah?

I guess that means that I have SO MUCH going on in my head right now that I can't even begin to try and figure out how to get it out, and into here, so all that's coming out is blalalallalalah. Fair warning i guess...   So lemme see...   Anthology submission finished, and on time! GASP I'm afraid I have good news and bad news about that... which do you want first? (I always say bad, if it matters, so I guess we'll go that route.) Bad news: This STILL isn't the end... there will be one more

Update about stories #1

I should be releasing a new chapter of Second Chances soon. Beyond that, I am reviewing anthologies. Therefore, I will not be working on my stories as much. As soon as I finish the reviews, I shall be working on finishing Dark Earth: The Prophecy Chapter 12 and the three remaining chapters of Book 1 of the series.

Awake

It's 2:30 a.m. and I'm awake.   I suppose I should be asleep, but I'm not.   Insomnia is one of the many side effects of the mood stabilizer I'm taking. It also causes drowsiness. So you end up being sleepy when you're suppose to be awake and doggedly awake when you're suppose to be asleep.   So, I worked on the new book. I'm probably on the last section of the second chapter. I can't see adding much more to this chapter once I finish with Euphorbia and Casey.   The third chapter will co

Just updating

So, I'm alive and well. I've been working my stories. I have started to post 100 Flash Stories and have since posted a story that has helped me in purging my demons. I'm also working on a new story. Jason and Gary have both looked over it. Apparently Jason wants to read the next chapter right now since I've only written the prolongue. I plan on working on the first chapter some more, but for now, I need sleep and I need to let my hand and wrist relax. My carpal tunnel is acting up again. *le s

Holes & 95 shades of Crimson

Snowdog was in town for an interview, by in-town I mean in the general Southern California area. It was neat, hadn't seen him since San Francisco.   Quick version of events.   Stowed my backpack in the trunk with recyclables.   Chatted with Snow and Viv while driving out to Anaheim.   Hung out at Viv's house for a few hours. She apparently cleaned for our arrival. Her son commented that it was odd that the place was clean , after he tried to con me into feeding the dog. What's with kid

Why take a life partner?

I was going to write this deep, brooding blog entry. Actually I did. And I posted it. Only I posted it in my personal, no-one-has-access-or-even-knows-about-it journal. The catharsis came simply from writing it and I didn't actually want to make people sit and wonder what words of support they could offer to make me feel better when really I was already feeling fine having written it.   So I do feel better. Emotional crisis averted and all that jazz.   Then if my still contemplative b
