Bits and Bobs, New Job Edition
** I finally started my new job on Wednesday. They told me at 3:50 pm on Tuesday (everyone at the offices goes home at 4:00). Yay me!
*I really like the job. The traffic is mildly annoying in the morning, and the last two nights have been outrageously annoying with people leaving work for the holiday weekend and heading to the shore, but otherwise ( Read more... ) -
Moving Forward
Well, the holding pattern is breaking a little. My emergency School Media Specialist cert has been issued and should be here soon. I'm trying to find out definitely when I can start work. My guess is next week, right after the holiday. Which still gives me four weeks before school's out. Which is better than nothing.
And...I received a letter ( Read more... ) -
Snoopy Who
I totally want a t-shirt with this image: Snoopy Who. Posted originally at The Angry Black Woman. Because the Beagle who Could totally rocks as the Doctor. And Woodstock as K-9 is brilliant.
I would change one thing, though.
Snoopy totally needs a fez -
Keeping Busy
As I said last time, I'm still in a holding pattern - waiting for paperwork to start my new job, waiting to hear from agents on the new project. Waiting, waiting, waiting. So I used my time to work more on my writing loft project. Now that the electric is finished, I was able to move my stuff up from downstairs.
This is what the space looked like ( Read more... ) -
Quick Update
* I have STILL not started new job. State DoE and sundry other persons are being so slow it's almost painful. If it were up to me this would have been taken care of weeks ago. Alas, it's not as important to anyone else as it is to me (and possibly my school's principal), so I must wait, hopefully not much longer.

Review Linkies and Blog Tour Stops
The Virtual Blog Tour continues! This week I've been at Beyond the Books, The Book Faery Reviews, and on a Book Panel at Literarily Speaking. Today I have an interview at The Examiner, and I answer three questions at Jenn Nixon's blog. The blog tour has been great so far, and I've been trying to keep up with all the comments.

Breaking Dawn is...broken (SPOILERS)
Okay, look. I'm not a huge TWILIGHT fan. I didn't hate the first one; liked it enough to read NEW MOON. I wanted to shove Bella off a cliff myself by the end of that one, but after a pause I went ahead with ECLIPSE. That surprised me in that I liked it best, I think, enough to read BREAKING DAWN.
And it all fell apart like a wet paper sack.
I'm not ( Read more... ) -
Last Book Tour stop of the week!

Every wedding is a Royal Wedding
There was a lot of hullabaloo about William and Kate's wedding last week. Yeah, remember that? News moves fast in this day and age, blink and you'll miss it! I admit that I was caught up in the fervor, not for any reason other than it's one of those events that happen infrequently. Oh, all right, who am I kidding? I'm one of 'those' girls - I read ( Read more... )
