The boys and are about to—finally—watch Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. This is the one that the short kid made me promise I wouldn’t see in the theatre without him. Then, once it was no longer player, he told me he didn’t really care, he was just messing with me.
And I think one […]

I’ve been playing with my new Palm TX. The differences between it and the iPaq are huge. I think, once I’m used to it, I’ll like the Palm better, but right now it’s frustrating the hell out of me.
As far as reading with Mobipocket, it works about the same, but it looks better on the […]

I’m still trying to recover from Christmas. Dayum, it is one seriously chaotic holiday, no?
But on Christmas Eve day I found out On the Edge is a nominee for the 2007 CAPA award for Romantic Suspense!

And it’s especially cool because the first book in the series, 72 Hours, was a 2006 […]

Yes, that’s the holiday wish in our Christmas card. Unfortunately it didn’t scan worth a damn.
So Happy Holidays from Casa Stacey, and you can see the “outtake” pics used on the front of our card after the jump! (They kind of explain the Muddy Christmas thing.)

My RTB post, “Tis the season for category romance”, is up today!
And my children have a snow day! ACK!
Now I really wish I hadn’t put off wrapping. The short kid’s pretty anxious this year and can’t be trusted to stay in bed, so I was planning to accomplish most of the wrapping while they were […]

The short kid went to school today, which was nice. It’s amazing how fast I adjusted to having the day to myself and how I managed to accomplish anything before this past September boggles my mind. Quite frankly, how I kept my sanity without the use of earplugs topped by noise-cancelling headphones boggles my […]

When a man sets out to tame a strong-willed woman, he’d best hang on to his hat.
Will Martinson, the town doctor, already has a heap of troubles on his plate, what with a pregnant whore, an ailing friend and a sheriff with a bad habit of shooting people. The last thing he needs […]

Since we’re socked in by a nor’easter, I’m getting to watch a little more pregame then usual, and can I just say this whole Patriots vs the Jets rivalry coverage is cracking me up? They’re making out like it’s a coaching change-up exacerbated by Mangini’s A Whiny Rat Bastard-gate.
Our desire to annihilate the […]

Nice little snow squall yesterday—about 5″, I guess. The boys were annoyed because it started at two, which was too late to get early dismissal and was over by about ten last night, so the town had plenty of time to clean up and we didn’t even get a delay. A waste of a snowstorm, […]

Okay, not really stormy. Just wicked windy.
The husband went out to see a friend.
It’s 10:21 pm and I’ve been watching “Ghost Hunters” since 8:00.
Alone.
They’re doing the Copper Queen Hotel investigation right now.
I can’t move. Can’t go pee. Certainly can’t go into the basement and get my laundry.
If my cat sneezes I might have a heart […]
