We call Gotcha Day the day our case got through court and it was legal - that is in November.

Anyone know of any actor/athlete/etc. types who are young, blond, and handsome in a pretty-boy, not-too-bright way? This year the man-paper for my RWA Christmas party is turning into a collage of my WIP, and I've got not one but two actors apiece for my two bad-ass warrior male leads (one is Nathan Fillion with a touch of Sean Bean, the other Alexis Denisof with a trace of Christopher Eccleston), but I'd like to find someone to represent my pretty boy 19th century cabana boy who dies at the end of Book One.

Susan, how about Ryan Carnes? [link]

I love the idea of Gotcha Day. Happy msbelle and mac-iversary!

So, Noah, bless his heart, woke up at 3:00 AM. But wasn't fussy or mad or anything else. I only got him out of the crib because I was already up with insomnia. I fed him some and put him back in the crib. Where Little Man remained, nary a complaint, awake with his mobile and his stuffed animal for entertainment until 5:30, when K and I woke up again and got him.

Chris Carmack does have that Hi, I'm Beefcake! look down.

Though he still looks disturbingly like the central casting version of my high school friend Jeff.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I've got to stop falling asleep on my couch and staying there all night. It gives me a crick in my neck and doesn't get me completely rested. At least getting up early meant that I was able to get my laundry done this morning and clean the six inches of snow off my car before getting in on time.

Now, I just have to hope that they don't need me at the bookstore tonight (I'm on call, which means I have to call in two hours beforehand), so I can finally put up the tree that I meant to put up last night but slept instead.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sooo... what's Jeff doin' these days? He seein' anyone?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just had an enormous chocolate chip cookie, courtesy of the Doubletree. We don't even do much business with them, and yet? Cookies for everyone!

I don't understand why I am so tired and cranky. It makes no sense! I should totally take Friday off. Or something. Grump grump grump.

It must be something in the air. I totally grumped at my chiropractor for calling me Susie, when I misheard him and he had actually called me Susan. I had to go back and apologize.
