To Nablopomo or not to Nablopomo

I thought that while I was thinking about whether or not to join nablopmo this year—I’ve been doing it since the beginning—at least every November—I should get something up here just in case. On the pro side, I’ve done it every year and it does give a feeling of accomplishment. …

why I love the internet

Sometimes you meet people online and you find out things about them from their blogs, or twitter or email lists. And you like them. Sometimes you might never meet those folks in the flesh—but you can know them for years. I have quite a few folks like that back from …

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens…

These are oh, three of my favorite things: The Victorian Trading Company : It’s expensive, but  you can get pretty good deals every so often. Their Halloween stuff is most excellent. I get at least one thing every year. This year may well be the Apothecary Jars (with Poison labeling …

#wineparty is the big fun

I could not for the life of me really get twitter for quite some time. I’m longwinded. I’m verbose. I write and talk a lot. Twitter was too short and I didn’t have a lot of folks I knew on there who used it regularly. Then through someone on Reverb …

says it better than I could

It was a typical net.exercise – a screaming mob pounding on a greasy spot on the pavement, where used to lie the carcass of a dead horse. ~Unknown

I’m not actually sure how the Non November Nablopomo works. Do I have to follow the theme of “Swim”, respond to the prompts as in Reverb 10 or can I still write whatever on those days I need to write whatever? Have you ever had one of those days where …

Erstwhile Dancefloor Revolution

I’m thinking of flipping the name for my blog. I’ve had one or another T.S. Eliot quotes for awhile. The one before this was Sprawling on a Pin from Prufrock, one of my early favorites (what kind of  a weird teenager likes Prufrock?) Oh look I’ve still got an old …

This moment contains all moments. ~CS Lewis

December 29 – Defining Moment Describe a defining moment or series of events that has affected your life this year. (Author: Kathryn Fitzmaurice) I’m starting to wonder if Reverb 10 is all I thought it would be. I hoped it would connect me with other folks on the web. For …
