The weather changed and I CANNOT STOP SNEEZING! Argh! I HATE summer. :(
I've got an interview over on G&BB w/ Bill Surie who writes as Holly Denham. His book Holly's Inbox was truly a good story. I really enjoyed it. You should go over and have a look. :)
Today has been the day of the blahs. Worried about my poor nephew. Tired. Kind of grumpy. Need a vacation. *sigh*
I'm wondering if my previous entry about my blog rubbed people wrong. That wasn't my intention. Someone said they would comment more. That wasn't what I was trying to do. I was simply saying that blogging, for me anyway, is something I do for fun and though I would like more comments, doesn't mean I have to have them. If I write something you want to comment to, go ahead. If not, that's okay too.
So this whole writing thing is getting on my nerves. I'd gotten almost all the way done with my first draft for Kara & Jamison's story and then kind of hit a brick wall. For one thing I was getting to the point where I was starting to hate their story. For another, I've been really stressed out (or at least annoyed) and haven't been focusing on my writing. I guess I should. *sigh*
Speaking of which, I had this crazy idea for a story I'm thinking of writing for submission to Samhain. It's an erotica and it's something I think would be both titillating and sexy. :) Still have to flesh it out and think it over.
I hope it rains. The humidity here has been really high (for Portland) and it's just gross. I HATE heat and humidity, so I've been miserable. There's nothing sexier than stewing in your own sweat. Ugh!
I really need to just get away from life for awhile. Go find a hole to hide in and escape. I'm just so tired!
I was talking to my mom today about this ridiculous dream I have of owning my own home. With the way things are going at work, the whole thing IS just a dream, which is really annoying. I don't have enough hours or make enough money to even think about it. My mom said she thinks I should maybe just look into getting a studio apartment or something, but honestly? I just don't know if I can handle that idea. I could see myself getting a roommate, but someone who isn't quite as anal as my old one. I think I'd prefer to live with a guy. My dealings with women just isn't worth mentioning. Plus, I like guys. I get along better with them anyway. :)
And that's about it. My nose won't stop itching. Boo! :(

Apologies for being AWOL over the weekend :) I'm going to read back over your most recent posts but I hope your nephew is on the mend soon! Oh, and I like your blog - and I like commenting on it (I hope that is OK?).
Just a thought, but maybe your need a break from Kara & Jameson? Work on something else for a while (that new story sounds interesting) and come back to your main WIP fresh? As for a house - I'm still saving. Budgeting is evil, but I keep thinking of the house!
When the time is right, you WILL own your own home. I know you will. There was a time in my life (not so long ago, actually) when I thought I never would. I didn't make enough money, had too much debt, etc.
And then the stars started aligning. Credit cards got paid off (two of them this year), got a new job with a slightly larger salary (couple years ago), got a small raise (last year), the minimum payment on my nearly maxed out credit card was drastically reduced...and here I am, waiting rather impatiently to close on my first home.
It WILL happen. You just have to have faith and BELIEVE that God has you the perfect living situation. You have to open your heart to the possibility of something that you may never have thought to have for yourself. And keep working toward your dream.
And if you're really just wanting out on your own right away, go for an apartment. It doesn't have to be forever. Sometimes God just needs us to move on to something else beyond where we've stuck ourselves so that when He's ready to put us where He wants us, we're ready and open to it.
Hope your nephew gets well soon. I know it's scary when the little ones get sick like that.
I'd say go for an apartment. Having your own place with no one else around is definitely a good stress reliever. I want to have a house some day too but I know I'm years away from that. And the best thing about living alone: no one steals your leftovers or your ice cream.
Hope your nephew is feeling better.
