"A what, Lord?" "An ARK!" "...Is this a joke?"

Spring must be coming. Not only does the rain come down hard enough to keep me from being able to see across the street, last night I had the urge for a glass of white wine (for those playing along at home -- a Lieb 2002 pinot blanc. Their reds are iffy but their whites are generally things of teh pretty).

Although I do somewhat regret it is not a snowstorm, it is, after all, March. Fair enough. Now for some thunder, please?

And I woke to some good news -- although not quite done reading, m'editor has given a happy thumbs-up on THE NIGHT SERPENT.

*is relieved*

Now to finish up this book and get work on "Anna's" next project*....

(the cycle of life ain't got nothing on the cycle of editorial)


And, just for a bit of amusement: "How to Shower Like a Man/Woman" PG-13, not really work-safe, and pretty damn funny...

*and the two freelance projects sitting next to it, and the two e-mail queries about more work, and...

*snorfle*

It has been pointed out to me (in a 'bad kitty, no cool points!' way) that I do not know nor constantly employ popular e-phrases like "for the win," "internets," or most sort of leet-speak slang or abbreviations.

It's true.

I have a Life.

*hides in shame*

breaking news

from CNN.com: Army Secretary Francis J. Harvey has resigned in the wake of the Walter Reed hospital scandal, two days after firing the 2-star general who was heading up Reed.

This is a scandal that veteran groups knew about years ago. A scandal that civilians knew about years ago -- it was being discussed on LJ, openly. Substandard facilities and treatment, for those who were wounded in war, serving this country.

Only now, two weeks after the story broke in the news, is anyone resigning. And Bush has said not word one on the topic.

"We support the troops."

Yeah. Right.
