No RB yet.
This afternoon, Romeo decided to stalk the Queen. Step by step, inch by inch, he sneaked -- he thought -- up on her. Then, when he was about two feet away, she looked up at him and glared... the Glare of Death!
She didn't make a sound and..... step by step, inch by inch, he backed away, never taking his eyes off of her until he was a safe distance away.
She then put her head down and went back to her doze. *giggle* Ya don't mess with the Queen!

Conserving megabytes so I'll be gone for a while but I'll be back before bed to say goodnight.

This just in: RB returned about three minutes ago. He's been gone for approximately 14 and a half hours.

I'm back just long enough to say goodnight. I've been working on a template for the Samgaran calendar to help me keep track of how much time there is between events. I can't use a Terran calendar because the Samgaran year is 400 days long, divided into 10 months of 40 days each with 10 days in each week.
Anyway, time to head out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Greetings.
Things have finally settled down enough for me to post. Hopefully, they'll stay that way.
I'm going to finish working on the Samgaran calendar today and get some dates nailed down. What else I'll be able to get done I don't know. I think that a period of meditation is in order. This December is shaping up to be crazier than normal.....

I've finished the calendar template and finished up a scene in Book 4. As as result of this industry, my eyes are burning and I look like I'm crying. *sigh* Time to rest the eyes...

RB has gas.
He has gas that qualifies as a Weapon of Mass Destruction.
Fortunately, it's a reasonably warm night and we've opened the back door to air the place out....

We're back.
RB has serious teeth. He may not be black but he's definitely a vampire-kitty!

The Queen has done it again.
She sat on the keyboard and messed up the desktop. The dock where we park our most used applications is supposed to drop down out of sight when we don't need it. It is now stuck in the "UP" position and I can't figure out how to fix it and I'm afraid to poke around too much for fear of making matters worse. I'm beginning to think that I'm going to have to make a wooden cover for the keyboard to protect it every single time I get up from the computer. Since he's the one that set it up, I'm pretty sure that Skywise can fix it. Hope so anyway. Having it in the "up" position is damned unhandy!

Skywise is home. He figured out what the Queen did and fixed it. (She managed to sit on the "shortcut" that caused the dock to say up.) Now I'm gonna take my tired little self to bed.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Greetings.
We had to make a kitty litter run this morning. We picked up 100 pounds. With six cats in this house and one at the Guest House, we're going through litter at a pretty good clip.

I'm going to start conserving megabytes early since we didn't get a full refill last night. Be back later.

I'm back for a moment. I've been doing dishes and doing a little writing to keep from burning too many megabytes on facebook. Tonight is the winter finale for AoS and thanks to the entire cast with their sly hints of impending disaster (including death) I'm a wreck. I should NOT allow myself to get so involved in a story I'm not writing myself but I have so now I have to deal with the fallout. I just hope that whatever happens won't devastate me TOO much.

I'll check in again when the show's over and dinner is in the oven.

Back. Dinner's in the oven.

AoS wasn't quite as traumatic as advertised but I think I'll stay away from facebook for a while. My newsfeed will be full of posts from the AoS pages, everyone will be nuts and I don't really need that. The fallout from this episode won't be known until after the show comes back in March. At least my favorite actor in the cast is still around although his character has undergone a major change and probably not for the better and he was pretty bad to start with. *sigh* The "new" character is going to have to go some to be as interesting as the old incarnation.

Damn I'm tired. I've been doing some "non-book related" research the last couple of days and I'm really going to have to get serious about meditation practice. I'm averse to taking medication and if I want to avoid having to take a daily pile of pills, I need to get my stress under control and meditation is the best way to do that. The last two and a half months have been "one thing after another" in the stress department with no let up and I'm feeling it. So mediation for the stress and naps for fatigue that is partly a result of the stress. *sigh*

Busy "at home" morning. RB has gone walkabout again. *sigh* We're hoping that once he's neutered he'll be less inclined to roam. I slept in this morning so I'm getting a late start. Time to get busy so I can write later...

RB came back at 5 and Moonie and I are done watching DVDs for the night. I will now pay both propane bills and then get back to writing.

Greetings.
Skywise is on his way to work and things are starting to settle down. I hope to get some writing done today around chores - laundry!  Smiley
I'm going to get caught up while I finish my tea and then get busy....

Wasted over two hours on a printing job that should have taken five minutes but due to the only working printer in the house being hooked up to the computer that's on dialup and needing 20 minutes to get it to stay connected, then another hour to download 152 emails to get to the one I needed to get the link to what I needed to print, then another 20+ minutes to get Firefox to load, then waited for Amazon to load (I need a "return" mailing label) and THEN at the 2+ hour mark, the computer resets and I have to start ALL OVER AGAIN!  Smiley Smiley  Smiley
At that point, I quit.
I'll try again when we're in the bonus period. I'll be able to switch the downstairs computer to the satellite then....
