Halloween

28 October 2003 by MissMeliss

Attention Local Crewe:

We'd talked some about hanging at my place on Friday evening, so I can be home to scare greet trick-or-treaters, and so that we can have PumpkinFest out on the Patio.

Could I get a headcount and any requests for snacks, please?

Thanks.

I can’t decide if this is disturbing or amusing

22 October 2003 by MissMeliss

…but I found it in a blog I was reading, and had to share… of course, has seen it.

The Gospel According to Lego

Apologies…

11 October 2003 by MissMeliss

…to those of you who are getting the feed. It's apparently working, and kinda spammed the hell out of things.

I offer brownies to make up for it.

Further Update

10 October 2003 by MissMeliss

The feed for MochaChai isn't communicating properly. I know what the change should be, and emailed the support folks with it.

I hate that you can't manage feeds that you create.

Happy Friday.

Oh, and : I am still working on your project. We had an issue with Cleo last night that distracted me.

Housekeeping

10 October 2003 by MissMeliss

So, I've moved my personal blog to a new directory, which means a new link. I've moved my NaNoWriMo project to the OLD blog directory.

This changes RSS feeds in this manner:
/was/ blog feed – /is now/ NaNoWriMo WIP feed.
is new blog feed.

Feel free to add/delete either to your friends list at will – and as a reminder, I pretty much only post to the blog, not here – not real stuff anyway.

While everyone else…

Waits for The Return of the King the movie I'm most looking forward to is a romantic comedy: Love Actually.

Hey, even I am allowed to be disgustingly girly, sometimes.

Bibliotic

1 October 2003 by MissMeliss

Everyone I know is doing this, but I'm using 's list as my jump point because then I don't have to edit for OD. And because I so rarely steal from her :)

Y'all know the rules: Cross off the authors who don't live on your shelves, and replace them with ones who do.

Note: I crossed off Tolkien. Yes, we have Tolkien books on our shelves, but those are Fuzzy's not MINE. I'm not really a Tolkien fan. Love the movies, though.

1. Neil Gaiman
2. Tad Williams Laurell K. Hamilton
3. Dorothy Dunnett Madeleine L'Engle
4. Sean Stewart Jane Austen
5. Guy Gavriel Kay
6. George R. R. Martin
7. J. K. Rowling
8. J. R. R. Tolkien Jasper Fforde
9. Truman Capote Tom Clancy
10.William Shakespeare

Fun with Real Estate Law

30 September 2003 by MissMeliss

“Every property must have an owner. In Pennsylvania, a 600-acre forest that was deeded to God reverted to the state for nonpayment of taxes.”

Need More Books

21 September 2003 by MissMeliss

I'm currently in a political fiction mood. This happens every so often, like the time when I was fourteen and Mom brought home a book called The President's Daughter which lead me to read everything Allen Drury had ever written, all within one week. (I read fast, remember).

So, can anyone recommend anything. Please?

Oh, and faint, or something, because this entry is NOT in my blog :)

What I’m Reading: Bibliotica

Review: Death of a Billionaire, by Tucker May

Review: Death of a Billionaire, by Tucker May

For a first novel, Death of a Billionaire is remarkably polished, deeply entertaining, and packed with personality. I turned the final page already hoping this is only the beginning of a long writing career for Tucker May.

Review: Hummingbird Moonrise by Sherri L. Dodd

Review: Hummingbird Moonrise by Sherri L. Dodd

Hummingbird Moonrise brings the Murder, Tea & Crystals trilogy to a satisfying close, weaving folklore, witchcraft, and family ties into a mystery that’s equal parts heart and suspense. Arista’s growing strength and Auntie’s sharp humor ground the story’s supernatural tension, while Dodd’s lyrical prose and steady pacing make this a “cozy thriller” that’s as comforting as it is compelling.

Review: The Traveler’s Atlas of the World

Review: The Traveler’s Atlas of the World

It’s a celebration of curiosity — of countries we know by heart and those we might never reach, but can visit here, one breathtaking image at a time.

Review: National Geographic The Photographs: Iconic Images from National Geographic

The Photographs rekindles that same sense of wonder, distilled into one breathtaking collection. Across more than 250 images, National Geographic’s legendary photographers remind us what it means to see — truly see — our planet and ourselves
