Fitness Update
I feel like it's been a while since I've written anything here. I have been meaning to, but there was a lot happening this weekend. But it is behind me, so I am able to sit down and post ( Read more... ) -
NaNoWriMo
I heard about this last year from a co-worker at Borders. I had just started there and writing was what we had in common... and I just stumbled across it again. What is it ( Read more... ) -
Photography Update
So, I HAVE to get over my fear of flashes and lighting. It has hindered me for too long. I don't know why it intimidates me as much as it does, but something about the concept just seems so foreign to me. Perhaps it is the fact that, from the start, photography for me has always been about the art, not the technical end to get to that art. So I ( Read more... ) -
This Helps me Feel Better
I was looking through some old pictures of me on my Facebook, and I stumbled across this picture from last year. Look at me compared to the picture taken of me a week ago. Wow, that's crazy!

Life Update
I should learn that as soon as I make absolutes I am going to break them. I am going to write a long-ish post today, because all the recent things in my life intertwined more than usual this week ( Read more... ) -
Grand Opening
Today I went to the mall to return a jacket. It was from Macy's, which is clear on one end of the mall. As I was walking out the door my mother says, "Nordstroms opened today. Why don't you check it out?" (what she really said is go there and see if they're giving away anything free, but we'll keep going for the sake of the story). I head to Macy's ( Read more... ) -
Aviary Update
This afternoon I worked at the aviary. I started back last week and forgot to blog about it! I was really nervous, considering that I sent an email to the co-worker and friend I was concerned about back when I was sick, and she never replied. Who knows what I'd encounter ( Read more... ) -
Mad Blogger Alert!
Tonight you will see a ton of new posts from me. I have needed to write for a while, but I also feel that things are easier to chew in small doses. So I am going to try to separate themes and ideas and work on making them short little reads (though the writing one is a bit longer than I am planning on aiming for... I had a lot to say). So be ( Read more... ) -
On Writing...
So... this entry has been a long time coming I guess. I realized recently that I was blogging away about the books I'm reading and the weight I'm losing, but not about the progress I'm making on my YA novel, Mirror Earth. And to answer truthfully, it is intermittent at best. I am working on plot things, and you can't just pull things out of thin ( Read more... ) -
You Know You've Made It When...
...Borders Books and Music are selling t-shirts themed from your book! Stephenie Meyer and Christopher Paolini are rockin' the book accessories! I have been wanting to do this for a while now, ever since I saw them. I think it is funny, and yet cool and inspiring:
