Things I Should Probably
Keep To Myself

Also, fun links, new authors, books I like, and probably a good deal of incoherent ramblings.

POINTLESS BLOG POST: Hair, Outlaws, and Quirk

7/5/2014

It's been a lazy, uneventful holiday weekend and I love it. Unfortunately, I've not written very much, but I've had a blast with my family. So since I usually blog about books and book-related stuff, I thought I'd do a post that was just about what's been going on. 

 First, I chopped off my hair. Yay! Here is a very sleepy picture of me with my new short hair.

I love having short hair again. I live in Hawaii so it's usually pretty hot here. And also, I'm usually so distracted that with long hair I will go around with a french fry in my hair or something all day and not even think to look in a mirror. Two problems solved! 

I've been getting really irritated with social media lately, so I've been trying to stay away from Facebook and whatnot until it stops annoying me. Or at least until I can manage reading things on there without being filled with a bubbling rage. This is how Facebook makes me feel right now.

Except my boobs are totally bigger.
I haven't been technically working, but I have been mulling over ideas to use in Blood Day, and a plot for a project that I'm hoping to work on after the sequel to Jenny Undead is written. I'll only tell you that I listened to Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash all day. AND THAT'S ALL YOU'LL GET FROM ME.

Okay, it's sort of a weird Western. AND THAT'S IT. 

FINE. It's loosely based off of the outlaw known as the Kentucky Cannibal, who is a direct relative of mine that ran with the Henry Plummer gang. It's going to be so much fun to write. I get to do lots of research and delve into the history of my family. He's sort of a big deal in our family, and we always take pictures of his grave on Boot Hill whenever one of us goes to Virginia City.

And we also take pics like this. We're an odd bunch. I blame the cannibal.
That's about my weekend. We had a Harry Potter movie marathon, but only made it through three (it's pretty hard to top the third one, anyway). 

I made pancakes this morning.

I ordered way too many beanbag chairs. Because writers are crazy and crazy writers have living rooms full of beanbag chairs. And also I didn't want to go into the city to buy chairs. 

I've been in my pajamas since Thursday night.

I'm going to write now. This blog post makes no sense and I'm suddenly feeling like this weekend is way too quirky.
