Hey, did you know that Spike (James Marsters) from Buffy has a band? I saw an interview with him on The Late Show. He is so the anti-Spike in person. Very soft spoken, spazzy and polite. Oh, and no accent, he's American not British.

There goes my pedicure appointment.

Last night in kung fu I got to work on my sparring. I need to work on pulling back my punches. I find I'm throwing my arms out and pausing. By the time class was over my big right toe was hurting and it felt like something was stuck to the bottom of my toe. After class I got to check and found the bottom of my toe had been ripped off. I had to use scissors to cut away the big flap of skin that covers the bottom of my toe. Now I have an open sore the size of a nickel. Bandages weren't big enough to cover the area so this morning I rigged something up with gauze and medical tape. The result is a big white toe that doesn't fit very nicely into my high heels. Alas, the price we pay for being a super hero in training. At least I didn't bleed all over the training floor.

My own personal weather pixie. Found through Fresh-Hell. I tried to find an icon that looked a little like me, but I did like the geisha weather pixie.

I was up half the night doing my taxes online. Itemizing deductions and working through stock sales is a confusing time consuming process. But it's worth it, thanks to Dubuya I'm getting back a nice chunk of change on my return. Maybe I'll treat myself to a day at the spa if I'm on the next testing list for kung fu. I think I will be, if not I'll whine and beg my sifu. I know I need to clean up my basics but I'm also dying for new challenges. I'm ready to be purple (that way my sash will match my bruises).

Work is still slow. I've got a full time job with only part time work. You'd think that would be fun but no, it's boring and it makes time go by really really really slow. Which websites do you hang out at when you're bored? Here's a few of mine:

Plan B is now in effect.

March is national novel editing month or Nanoedmo for those who like acronyms. I have decided to do some editing and finishing of my Lexi novel. I think this book could be my ticket out of cubicle-land. (yes, when I dream I dream BIG.) Speaking of books, I have just finished up "Plan B" and have moved on to "I Dare".

Saturday was the first day in over a week that I didn't wake up with a pounding headache. Went to my cousin's wedding in Salem. It was nice seeing folks from the clan. Simon got to meet my extended family and was still talking to me when the day was over. The ceremony was short and sweet and Jamie's wedding dress was to die for. Discovered my other cousin Kevin is a pastor as he actually performed the ceremony for his brother. As you can probably guess that's the religious side of the family. Not too sure what happened to our branch of the family tree. We are much more nature loving hippie types that formal church going give my life over to this dude named Jesus types.
