I wonder if my bosses and coworkers use the word botched when describing me and my work?

OMG, just yesterday I was thinking I should pull out the Kingsman's files off the computer and rewatch them. Now you show me this Watching the trailer, I was thinking to myself, the only thing missing is Samuel L. Jackson. You blew my fucking mind!!!! I was worried when I saw Apple Studios and thought I don't want to subscribe to them again but then saw Universal is planning on launching in theaters in the US on Feb 4th.

We are now into our first week of the Leap of Faith Anthology. Curious if you have read 1, 2 or more stories already? Do you have a favourite? Did once touch you in a different way (get you minds out of the gutter)? Did any surprise you? Just in case you didn't know or missed an odd mention of the anthology , it stared posting this past Thursday with a BANG! and the first set of stories will now have the limelight for 4 more days. Then this upcoming Thursday, another set will be revealed Since we went to one story anthology per year, make sure you get your fix in now. One thing about anthologies, we here at the GA News Blog like to feature the entries for the main focus week to week. You will still see the occasional blog, like this one, but we do give way on others to the keep the eyes there! Now by a show of hands, how many want me to take a four week break ? I promise I won't look at this blog again in case you all hurt my feelings 😭. So lets see what we did get out this week! Monday, the Review Team did their thing and guess what? They did a review : Tuesday, Myr got the scuba gear out for this featured deep dive into a genre 🤿: Then Thursday was the day we have been waiting for, the launch of the Leap of Faith Anthology : Now one thing that we still had 7 days of, was the Words of the Day: cytology, chipper, bangle, astraddle, juxtapose, chalet, irascible Member Participation Blogs - Great way to promote yourself!!

Secret video of @JamesSavik's lawn. What are those pants you are wearing ?

Why would you be staring at the wall when astraddle of your boyfriend?

I had to play this song and then started to Walk like An Egyptian like the do in the song 😜I’m back to my teens and twenties ❤️

Now that was one hell of an action packed season 2 ending It seems like it was like the books, were they built up to the climax at the end of each book. How long until season 3?

When I hear chipper, I think of this iconic scene from Fargo

Well, in case you were wondering what to read among other things this month, make sure you check out this review done up by @chris191070. Check it out!! Baring My Soul by Kbois Reviewer: chris191070 Status: Complete Word Count: 14,893 Well where does one start a review on a story that is so well written, that deals with topics of an upsetting nature. This is a story that will take many readers out of there comfort zone as it deals with abuse, suicide and mental illness. The story itself deals with the highs and lows of marriage and raising a dysfunctional family, all whilst dealing with effects of mental illness and child abuse. This is such a hard hitting story, that deals with difficcult situations that may have affected many of us. All I can say is have a large box of tissues when you read this as it will have you in tears.

Happy real Thanksgiving At least to my Canadian friends. You know what that means here, another day off for a long weekend or if you work on Monday, probably will be time and a half Makes me thankful I live in Canada This long weekend I find myself dog sitting at the dog's house. Not as in the dog house but at the house the dog's live with their human friends. They wanted to put them in a kennel as they headed out of town for a celebration of life, but shall we say the doggies are senior citizens and unfortunately they may not be with us for very much longer . So rather than the stress of a kennel, I agreed to come up and baby sit the old guys Moving on to GA stuff, I think I can tell you without @Valkyrie chasing me around with a pitchfork, that we had really good turnout to the 2023 Leap of Faith Anthology. Our prompt team is working around the clock to get on last read on them and back to the authors for any changes, I would expect you all will start seeing them in the short future There was a lot of other stuffs going on at the GA News Blog, so shall we do what the name of this blog is, and wrap it all up? Cia was by on Monday with an all new CSR Feature for this month. Check it out: Tuesday, @Myr put on his speedo again before he did another deep dive into another genre: Wednesday, can you believe it is the first Tuesday of October , Aaron brought us another great chapter of Ask An Author: We gave Val the week off, the slacker She is much too busy with the anthology in reality . This meant next up was our Friday announcement of some new prompts: Then today, or maybe yesterday depending on your time zone, Comicality came calling : Here are our Words of the Week: mammoth, hoarfrost, heifer, colander, cistern, bonsai, herbalist Member Participation Blogs - Great way to promote yourself!!

Last year I found a new use of one My urologist wanted me to do all my peeing into one in case I expelled a kidney store before he operated. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww And yes, I threw that one out when done

Sorry, just saw this Thanks for pointing out!!

Weren't mammoths found in the La Brae Tar Pits too? I thought they were there with the saber tooth tigers too.

Doesn't everybody turn off their phone at the movies as to not disturb their fellow movie goers?

I used to like to remind @Krista that she was the mother to quite a few heifers. For some reason she didn't appreciate it 🐮 **runs and hides**

Southern Alberta has a lot of Hoar's, as in the last name. I even believe that a smaller city's main TV station had a female reporter with the last name Hoar. I personally thought the last name with Dutch in origin, but I guess it is English. Who knew

We had those towers, but mainly around the two army bases in the city. Guess if you lived near the base and in the military, you were expected to come running and you couldn't say you didn't know I think they had them at CFB Cold Lake Air Force base too. When they went off, moving anywhere on or off the base was challenging. Let's hope they let all the Hawaiians know unlike a few years ago with the inbound missile attack! Those people are justifiably pensive Hope everything works as planned, and if not, they might know what to do for the future.

Methinks that methinks was always two words: Me thinks. Sometimes you rock my world, Myr.

I'm sure I've heard it in conjunction with a scare! After the mummy jumped out from behind the wall, it left me rattlebrained for a bit.

On the news the other day, more and more landlords are telling their tenants that in no way are they allowed to store and e-bike, e-scooter and other e means of transportation in their units, buildings or homes. Turns out the insurance companies are finding out more ways to up the rates for landlords . All of which have higher rates of catching fire then phones, laptops, etc.

Growing up, in a not really a baseball family, when I first heard the of the Baltimore Orioles, I wondered why a sports team would name themselves after a cookie

Hey 😀 Hey 😊 Okay I now I have got my Heartstopper Season 2 out of me 😜 It is time for me use the oft not used word of remiss, which I would be guilty of if I didn’t remind y’all, or is it ya’ll, that you have 2 WEEKS TO GET YOUR LEAP OF FAITH ANTHOLOGY ENTRY IN!!! See the directions below. Now that that PSA is done, let’s look at what happened at the GA News Blog this past week Monday, everyone’s favourite day of the week.

Sort of like doubling the amount of sugar in your first cup of coffee ☕ Tuesday was the fist day of a new blog, Genre in Depth. Check out this premier addition: We took a day off on Wednesday to prepare for Val’s Anthology reminder: Friday, Val sneaked in the weekly Prompts by the hair of her chiny chin chin 😮 Not that I’m saying Val has hair on her chin Saturday, looks like Comicality went all fancy with the word Chic in his title Just in case you missed reading this blog, you can catch up here Enough of this Tomfoolery!
