Massive understatement time: Things change when you have babies. I’m very lucky in that I have two pretty easygoing ones, but obviously we’re still working out our routines. There are some days when bedtime (for the adults) rolls around and I think “What did I even DO all day?” But! It’s not all baby, all […]

It’s been about a month since my last post, but this time there’s an excellent reason – four weeks ago, the twins decided to make an early appearance! In the middle of the night, of course, because that’s when all the chaos and drama always happens, right? Despite being two months early, they are doing […]

So last month I wrote one of those really annoying vague posts about how I had a lot of stuff going on in my non-blogging life, but then didn’t go into any detail. However, I looked, and I did say I’d write about it eventually, so maybe I’ll break even with this post. Upon my […]

This is just a quick check-in so I can stop feeling guilty about the “last post” date whenever I sign in to Blogger. Writing has totally taken a backseat to other life goings-on…actually, not even a backseat. Writing isn’t even in the same vehicle. Everything’s fine, there’s just a lot of STUFF going on in […]

I did the unthinkable recently. Really, I don’t know how I survived. It’s a miracle. I went away on a week-long family reunion…and had no internet access. Gasp. Shock. Horror. (Okay, to be honest, I had my phone, but I — unlike some other people there — didn’t want to spend hours a day on […]

I’ve mentioned a couple times here and there that I used to be a teacher. My husband is still a teacher. His mother is a teacher. His cousin and his wife are teachers. My mother is a retired teacher, as well as her best friend/my godmother, and one of my aunts. And since I used […]

No real post here today, just popping in to say that 1) I am still swamped with work and blogging’s definitely taking a backseat, and 2) the release of Second Skin has been pushed back a little bit, so if you were expecting it on Friday, sorry! I really wish I could share some of […]

Happy 2014, everyone! I hope the new year is off to a fantastic start and that those of you who live in the same region as me are keeping warm. I haven’t gone back to work yet, but I’m about 90% certain that when I do, the first thing I hand in will still say […]

I’m in that part of the cycle where while I’m still playing some Mass Effect (replaying as a different character, taking my time this time around), I’m doing some writing in my free time as well. I’ve just about worked the fanfic out of my system, so it’s almost time to start something new. The […]

Work is still work, and today I had to travel an hour away for my job. It wasn’t terrible, since there’s no traffic out in cow country, and the autumn leaves are rather nice.* It also helps that I don’t have to drive that distance for work every day. (*If my husband pronounces “foliage” as […]

So looking over at the blog stats and seeing that I haven’t done anything here since the 15th doesn’t feel too good. The new job got INSANE for about a week or two, and I really was doing little other than eating, sleeping, and working. It’s going well, so I can’t complain, but it is, […]

I’ve been back in the country for almost a week, which means it’s been almost a week that I’ve been neglecting this blog. To be fair, I did have to catch up on the mountain of work that accumulated while I was gone, as well as try to stay on top of the work that […]
