It’s Friday!! And October is rushing to a close. It feels like it’s rushing. Man, I’m somehow behind on things again. Where do the days go?

My brothers birthday is tomorrow and I still haven’t gotten him a present. I’ve been trying to think of somehting good, but if you were around last year, you’ll remember my brother’s a bti hard to buy for. I don’t want to get him gift certificates becasue I have a plan to get some of those for him for Christmas. Oh well, I’ll figure it out, I always do. :D

Also, galley’s for WATCH ME have arrived, and I’m going through them today. I love that my own stories surprise me at times. I wrote this story in January, so it’s a good length of time since I’ve read it. DId I tell you it’s about a married couiple? And that Samair, one of the secondary characters is teh heroine in TROUBLE? I find it a blast to see some of my characters and stories starting to tie together.

In other parts of my life. I’m trying to detox from pop again. This means headaches, adn last night I actually had chills! Maybe it’s more than detoxing the Diet Dr.Pepper from my system thats making me feel like crap?

OKay, here’s a joke to start your weekend off right. :)

This one is from Lynn:
A married couple is driving along a highway doing a steady 60 miles per hour. The wife is behind the wheel. Her husband suddenly looks across at her and speaks in a clear voice. “I know we’ve been married for twenty years, but I want a divorce.”

The wife says nothing, Keeps looking at the road ahead but slowly increases her speed to 65 mph.

The husband speaks again. “I don’t want you to try and talk me out of it,” He says, “because I’ve been having an affair with your best friend, And she’s a far better lover than you are.”

Again the wife stays quiet, But grips the steering wheel more tightly and slowly increases the speed to 75. He pushes his luck. “I want the house,” he says insistently..

Up to 80. “I want the car, too,” he continues.

85 mph. “And,” he says, “I’ll have the bank accounts, all the credit cards and the boat!”

90 mph 95 mph ……….The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete bridge. This makes him nervous, so he asks her, “Isn’t there anything you want?”

The wife at last replies in a quiet and controlled voice. “No, I’ve got everything I need,” she says.

“Oh, really,” he inquires, “so what have you got?”

Just before they slam into the Bridge at 95 mph, The wife turns to him and smiles. “The airbag.”

Moral of the Story :
Women are clever!!!
Don’t mess with them!!

Freya’s Bower charity anthology

I’m in it!

My short story THE MIRROR willbe included in this anthology. Some of you might have read it before as it has been published before, but that was a couple of years ago. It’s the second short story I ever wrote, the first to be published, and one of my all time favorite’s. Short, sassy, and very erotic.

Take a peek at the link above, and plan accordingly. This book is full of great stories and all the proceeds go to a good cause.

YAY!!

I just found out that it’s a for sure thing. I’ll be signing at the Taboo, Naughty but nice Sex shows!

Three shows, three cities. Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver!
My partners in crime are the VixenVivi Anna and hot author Susan Lyons.
The Calgary and Edmonton ones are in November, (10-12 and 17-19) and the Vancouver one is in January!

Oh, and we’ll be doing a workshop on erotic stories and how they help you explore your fantasies.

I’m soo excited.

This is Dylan Bruno, he plays Colby Granger on the tv show NUMBERS, and I find him very intrigeuing and super sexy. So much so that I used him as my inspiration for Kane Michaels, the cop in SEX AS A WEAPON. :)

Friday nights episode of Numbers was all about him. Well, okay, not all but enough that I have to say Go Watch It!!

:D

I’ve always known I have a bit of an obseissive personality. When I go after things - be it martial arts, traveling or writing - I tend to go after them hard. I’ve also always sort of realized that this might be why I’m still single. I get asked that a lot, why am I still single? Right now I think I know the answer.

It’s the all or nothing thing in my personality.

Remember the guy I had dinner with the other day? The no real butterflies guy? Well, I’ve spend the last few days trying to get to know him more and to let him know me, trying to keep things moving forward…and it happened.

I tend to either not be able to open up, or I open up and get to agressive. I even told him this when we first started talking about relationships and such. And here I go doing it again, getting agressive and pushing my way right out of what I am trying to get into. And even though he hasn’t come out and said forget it, I can feel myself going completely back in the other direction. Meaning, I’m out.

I can’t do the half way thing. I’m not sure if it’s because I truly believe if there is ever going to be something solid, that there needs to be a connection, a desire for there to be something, for both people, from the start. I guess I figure that if/when I ever find the one, my being agresive won’t scarwe him off, and my backing off won’t stop him from chasing me. Or if it’s because I’ve no patience, or maybe it’s just my own short attention span?

Whatever the reason, I think I’m giving up again. I’ve given up before, shut down and buried myself in my stories, or whatever it is I decide to focus on. I eventually get too lonely and give things another go…but part of me wonders just how many times I can do that before I stop giving it another go completely.

And you know what’s really funny about this all… for the last three months and old lover has been emailing me and trying to get back together, but I am just not intersted at all. This tells me it’s not just a man I want, but a special man.

That’s good, right?

I recieved this in an email with the title, The Most Popular Man In Prison” *snicker*

Last night I went in and did the taping for the segment of A Total Write Off that I was a participant in. Remember me telling you all about it? Well, it was a blast!

I have to say, the writing part wasn’t the best for me. I enjoyed it, it was the first time I ever had to write with someone else. My partner was author Jackson Carter and he was a great guy. He was great as a teammate, and by the end I felt sorry for the poor guy for being stuck with me. I never realized just how hard it would be to give up control of a story or to work with someone on something. Never mind it was my job to type the story out - and we all know how good I am with computers.

How they did it was that there were two teams of two, and the audience gave us a Place, a random computer thing gave us the genre, and then the audience gave us some items we needed to put into the story. Like a cell phone or a rollercoaster. We wrote the one page story while Barbara did short interviews with the writers and at the the end the mime/dancers acted out the skits for the audience to choose whihc they liked best.

Jackson and myself were team “Wit and Wisdom”. and we had some fun, and while our story was not the favorite of the audience, I was told it was okay to blame that on the critic they had. lol

I think the best part was just being there. The room was full of talented people. Barbara North was the host, and the creator of the show and boy was she great. Friendly, funky and full of personal style. I’d love to have a few drinks with her sometime and see what I could pick out of her brain. There were two mime/dancers as well, that had to act out the stories for the audience after we wrote them. MY GOD, I did not envy them that! But damn if they didn’t make it work. I saw them do three skits and each one had me smiling and laughing out loud. Very talented people let me tell you.

The crew was great too. Lots of experience and they were confident and comfortable, which made it easy fro me to feel that way. Plus, listening to them and talking to them, and watching them interact with each other reminded me of a few pubs I’ve worked in where the people staff just click. Everyone knows their job and does it, and they have a damn good time while they do it.

I have no pictures for you, sorry. I didn’t bring my camera, however one of the other writers did, and she took a pic for me, so when she scans it and emails it to me, I’ll post it for you all. And as soon as I know when the shows willbe on, I’ll be letting you all know that as well, because I know you want to watch them ALL!

Recently, I had dinner with a guy I met online. I’d really enjoyed emailing him, and talking to him on the phone, and when we finally met, I enjoyed his company too. Now comes the really hard part.

He is very communicative and loves to talk about things. He’s been hurt int he past and he wants to talk things slow. I understand this. I was very open about my own lack of experience in serious relationships, so slow is good. You all know I tend to rush to the physical and then am not happy with the results. However, by slow, he hinted that it would be at least 3 months before he would consider being physical! Now I was thinking a couple of weeks.

Now he comes even more. I like this guy, he’s nice, and sane and somewhat attractive. However, I didn’t feel the chemistry. You know what I mean? I didn’t get the “Oh, I like him” feeling. It’s more like, he’s nice, safe, sane, and I want to try a relationship.

So, I’m wondering if this is something I want to go with until I can’t wait anymore and say “Okay this isn’t worth it.” or should I just sort of back away now and continue my search for someone who does awaken the butterflies in my tummy?
