I’m not complaining.

Okay I am.

But lord work is crushing me right now.

I work for a mega corporation. Myself and my two co-workers have the heaviest burden in the company for what we do. There are only the three of us handling literally thousands of what our particular job consists of (yes I am being deliberately vague). And they are all time sensitive.

So what happens?

We take on more work.

Yes the powers that be, decided to give us the work from a couple of other states within the company’s empire. Adding to an already heavy burden.

Then I am taking off for a couple days next week which only makes me more anxious about the work.

And there’s no doubt my writing is suffering from it. My brain is fried. Make no mistake. I hope to have another chapter up tomorrow or at least before I leave.

What this means for you my friends. I may be short with you sometimes, but don’t cut off contact with me. Just have patience though since sometimes I might take a bit before I can respond. But do not feel bad that you are “bothering me”. Sometimes you are the light at the end of a very dark tunnel.

 

 

 

Ramblings of the Week, June 26, 2017

Another busy week for me.

Tonight is the Queen + Adam Lambert Concert at the Hollywood Bowl

Tomorrow we are going to see Cars 3.

Then Friday is a birthday party dinner for a relative. Then of course after that comes the 4th of July thing. The 4th decided to be on a Tuesday this year and my company decided only to give us that day off even though M has Monday the 3rd off and so does a couple of our friends. And they all work in the same industry as I do. Nuts!

One of the cities around us does their fireworks on the 3rd. I have no idea why, they just always have. This is where M’s cousin lives so that Monday night, we will be headed over to her place to BBQ and watch the works from her driveway on a hill.

Then more family and fireworks on the actual 4th! Too much! HA HA

I am supposed to be updating What Happened to Spock next and I hope to get to it soon but I’d actually also like to update You’re in My Veins. I plan to, hopefully, conclude Forever I Am With You by the end of July.

And nothing is better on a Monday than a pretty picture of Chris

Ramblings of the Week, June 05, 2017

So Friday night we went to see Wonder Woman and I loved it. Chris Pine was so swoon worthy. Seriously “OMG adorable”.

Chris-Pine-Wonder-Woman

Have to drive myself into work all week. Normally the SO and I carpool but he has a class all week that’s later than my hours. Not my favorite thing to do but it is what it is.

Tuesday we will probably see Pirates.

I’ll get done this week what I will get done. Saturday has to be taken up with preparations as we leave at 5:00 am on Sunday. We don’t get back until the evening of June 18th. Supposed to be a little rainy. I’ll do my best to get some good pictures of the area.

And that’s it for me for now.

 

Just Some Stuff

So I got a chapter of For the First Time in My Life I was Happy and a chapter of Where My Demons Hide done this week.  That’s likely it for this week as I have some other commitments and I am feeling rather lazy. I anticipate the other two stories that are due to be updated will make it next week just before I leave. I “may” get a second chapter of Unbonded up  as well but we shall see. No guarantees.

Tomorrow I am going to be seeing Wonder Woman. I can’t wait to see Chris in it. In recent movie happenings, I’ve seen Guardians of the Galaxy 2, King Arthur, and Snatched. I expect to see Pirates of the Caribbean this next coming Tuesday. After that there will a slight pause while I am way.

My trip comes in about 10 days. *Bites nails*.  I hate flying. I’ll be glad when we land on the ground. I will be even gladder when we land in LA a week later! HA. I won’t be bringing my laptop with me on this trip either, so that’s both a relief and a conundrum.

Tomorrow’s flash fic is pretty short! But it will still be up.

Since I am a little overwhelmed with preparing for my trip and getting a couple more updates done, I will likely post old one-shots for the next two Fridays, June 09, and Friday, June 16. Flash Fics will resume from me June 23.

I think that’s about all I have to say right now. Have a great weekend.

So I have today off work, which is always a good thing.

Had a nice weekend. Was alone for most of Saturday, but spent it writing, watching stuff, and playing games. Sunday was a family thing so I was gone most of the day. It wasn’t an emphasis on Easter as we aren’t really religious people but cousins were visiting from another state so we have a get together.

Today I am just chilling though I did get an angst filled chapter of When it Began up.

I got my artist for my T’hy’la Bang story over the weekend. I am excited to see what the artist comes up with. I’ve seen her work and she’s great, though she mostly does TOS. I can’t wait to see the art work she comes up with but she does have until the end of May and of course I can’t share it with anyone anyway! Posting of my story and her artwork won’t be until the last two weeks of June.

This week I will be working on When I Fall in Love, my Cinderella story, and For the First Time in My Life I was Happy.

 

Ramblings of the Week, April 10

This weekend was a social horror for me.

I had to do a birthday party for a two year old on Saturday and we were there from 10 to 10 with lots of loud obnoxious people and by the time I was able to go home I was more than done.

Two good things, I helped her color Easter eggs and at one point she stuck her little hand in the green dye because she was tired of trying to pull up the little scoop the egg dye color comes with. Then her little grubby hand was green. Very cute.

The other was one of the guests was fostering kittens and they were tiny, one of them barely two weeks old, and she brought them because they have to be fed every few hours. And they were very cute. Here are two of them on her lap.

One little guy thought he was going to fall and my arm was the nearest thing to grab on to.

Please ignore the ridiculous whiteness of my skin. The mottling too. Please and thank you.

Yesterday was yet another social thing, this one for an adult, but at least it was in a beautiful location. Carpenteria.

 

I am socialized out. Woke up with a killer headache today as a matter of fact.

Next up on the updating is “What Happened to Spock?” Angst is coming.

Now I just need some serious coffee and alone time. Yes. Alone. Thank you.

 

Ramblings of the Week, April 3, 2017

I had a great weekend in Morro Bay.

This picture is out the window from where we were wine tasting.

And this one is at night from our balcony hotel room.

Haven’t got anything ready to post yet but will begin to work on the next chapter of Dust to Dust, which has just two chapters left.

Other than that I don’t really have anything to talk about.

I am sure most have seen the ridiculousness that is Zach right now. I wonder if he decided to distract everyone from Chris’ new look. *smh*

Here’s something going around on tumblr! LOL

Mid-Week Ramblings

As I indicated in my latest update on AOS, Young and Beautiful, I am taking a bit of a break from posting.

I’ll be around Wednesday and Thursday, but will be working on something else for those days, and then I will be off on my wine tasting weekend in Paso Robles Friday-Sunday. Probably won’t have written anything to post until Tuesday of next week.

I think next up on the spreadsheet is Forever I am With You, so likely that is what I will update some time next week.

And speaking of upcoming vacations, as I think I have said, we are going to Yellowstone Park in June. Well next January looks like we are off on another Caribbean Cruise. The last one was fun and this time a group of us are going and we are getting rooms with Balconies and special spa access and privileges. I think most of the destinations are places we’ve been to but there is one we haven’t which is Amber Cove in the Dominican Republic.

In the meantime, myself and the great grand M are going to Morro Bay for the weekend of April 01. I cannot wait. We have a balcony room with a view of the ocean and bay. This is a favorite getaway of ours.

Last night we went to see Get Out and it turned out to be a pretty decent movie. I thought it was going to be horror but it was more a thriller where you ended up thinking, what is with these weirdos? I think next Tuesday (Tuesdays are cheap here so that’s why we go) we will probably see Logan. We usually wait until the following week to see popular movies until the crowds get a little thinner. Except Star Trek. I must see that right away always.

Speaking of, it seems like they are going ahead with Star Trek 4. I have mixed feelings about this. Of course I want to see Pinto in it and everyone else and the idea of having Jim’s daddy in the form of Chris Hemsworth is an intriguing one. But I don’t want to see more of the Spock/Uhura crap and I know I will and I just don’t want to go there yet again. Everyone but JJ Abrams agrees it’s a stupid, ridiculous plot point. It even made watchmojos list on youbtube of pointless romances in movies.

So yeah, I love Star Trek and I want to see them make more, especially since so many were convinced that Beyond was too much of a failure to make another, and I like to say, fuck you to all those critics and idiots who think you have to make 900 Million or you aren’t a success, but part of me wishes they would just let it go because I know Spock with Uhura will once more be shoved down our throats.

Well, that’s probably more than I wanted to say, but there you have it.

Ramblings of the Week, Feb 20, 2017

Yesterday was not an easy day for me, internet/social media-wise. It was painful and a bit humiliating. I made some mistakes and I regret those, but I am moving onward. I won’t go into any further details on here both for my own sake and anyone else involved. There’s no need to go through it.

With that in mind, today is a normal post day for me here. A post of the week.

Last week as we were leaving our house, we saw this weird light in the sky. Turns out we weren’t alone

mysterylights

The Navy, of course, claimed it was missile testing. We personally think it was aliens beaming up humans for experiments.

Bless him, he always tries. These ended up in my lunch last week

veggies

No, I didn’t eat them.

Friday of last week was a scary day for us weather-wise. Sinkholes, people being submerged in their cars, flooded freeways, collapsing roads, power lines landing on people. Not good. I left my building at work at 3:30 and had to seriously struggle to stay upright. The wind was hurricane strength. I white-knuckled it the whole way home but we made it, thankfully.

Today is President’s Day. I don’t have it off but he does and it was rainy and drizzly this morning. He drove me to work. Pretty nice. Our garage door is old and made of wood and when it rains it gets too heavy to open so pretty much my car was trapped in there all weekend anyway. I can’t wait for the sun.

I didn’t have a good night’s sleep because I was super wheezy all day yesterday and especially at night. I’ve been relying far too much on my inhaler lately and that’s concerning me because really asthma medicine is bad for you. There was a recent study out of Canada that said asthma is misdiagnosed a lot. Well, since I was diagnosed by a pulmonary specialist and have had breathing tests and treatments for years I am going to have to believe I wasn’t misdiagnosed. I was once tested that my lung capacity was at 40%. It’s better now obviously.

And I think that’s plenty for my ramblings this Monday.
