      LOL, Bronx. I bet the cover model is indeed gorgeous. Selling skin is part of the business after all . . . Winks.

      Oh, man, Umid is literally droolworthy. I have no idea why I didn't do this right off the bat, but I have another pose of his for the new one coming out in February. He's now the face (and other yummy bits) of that series.

      Lucky that you get to play with such hot guys. Would not mind having the same fun, but alas, I am far from the pro writing league at this time. Still retraining to get my act together. ROFL.

  2. 50,038 words written for NaNoWriMo, and I'm still going. I am a very wordy Wench. ^.^

  3. There's nothing like a new puppy to remind me why I'm not having kids in my next life. I will, however, admit to taking great delight in waking Teengirl and making her walk HER puppy. :D

      And crouch on the kitchen counter, texting the evil draconic mother frantically because said puppy is nippy... :D

      hahahaha! And learn how to train the puppy with proper people manners!

  4. Happy Birthday to my dear @pippychick, and may the coming year bring only good things! Love you!

      Thank you all, and for the good wishes :hug: 

      It’s a work in progress. I mean, I accidentally turned up at work yesterday. The universally recognised protocol is to call in sick, but then I haven’t been well… :shifty:

      :wub: to you all.

      Love you @BronxWench and @Melrick

  5. Happy birthday! :hug: :wish: :2tubs: :party:

    ‘Tis also my daft one’s birthday, just to stretch that coincidental thing a bit further.

      I did get 3.4k of smut written, so that’s a win IMO :)  (And ironically enough, was one of the characters’ birthday too.)

  6. Just a reminder... if you see gibberish, don't click the links, and DO report the post or member. It's spambot season.

      Yeah, but the side effects are: Sense of guilt, need to delete history and, I'm told, stiffness in socks. It's a sick world.

      It's the socks that does me in.

      Thanks for letting us know about the spambots problem. Just getting my computer to working right again after I got hit with a virus, so I really don't want any more troulbe with this machine.

      Both LOL comes with the territory! But you have every right to be a proud mama cause that means you did it right and she's going the right direction.

      How about bursting with old pride? Oldies are allowed to compromise! :)

      LMAO! Thanks, everyone! I'll ride the skateboard of pride and buy an OLD wine. :D

  11. I'm still waiting for spring. It would be nice if it lasted for more than two days this year, but I'm sure we'll segue right into summer like we always do. ::sigh::

      Here, I think we're making up for a serious lack of snow all winter with a serious lack of warm too. I wish that meant it would be a less humid and AC requiring this summer.

      I like summer, don't get me wrong, but I miss spring. The only season I'd give a miss to is winter, really.

  12. Don't you hate it when someone lands a plane on the highway? Honestly, it's not like I'm hogging their air space.

      Fortunately, the pilot and both passengers walked away, but honestly, the Major Deegan Expressway is a poor airfield.

  13. The daft one's uncle passed away yesterday. He was a dear, dear man, and we'll miss him very much. Slán a fhágáil, Uncail Jack

      Thank you, all. He was the last of his generation of the family, so it feels more like an ending than ever.

  14. So, yet again, the damned refrigerator has decided keeping things cold is not its role in life. Parts are on order, and contrary appliances will be shown their place. In the meantime, I have another fridge in the living room. :headdesk:

      I really shouldn't whine, since I do have a loaner while I'm waiting, but it's just awfully crowded. And awkward. Oh, well. Cold things are cold, and that's what counts.

  15. Oh, what a surprise...it's snowing. Again. >.<

      We're getting 3-5 inches today, another round of sleet, ice, and snow Wednesday, and then again over the weekend.

      Oh, rapture. We reached 8-10 inches today. ::headdesk::

      My son is cooking today!  Happy merry to everyone!

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I did most of the cooking last night. The lasagne is prepared and only needs baking (2 pans of it), and the filling for the steak, mushroom, and onion pie is done. All I need to do is prepare the pie crusts, fill, and bake. I have Italian bread, salad, and lots of nibbly things, as well as a case of wine, hard cider, Guinness, beer, and Campari. The place is mostly tidy, and I’m ready! :D

  22. Well, that was fun… Anyone else feel the earthquake that just rocked the Northeast area? :blink:

      BronxWench

      It wasn’t a tremendously big earthquake as these things go, but for our area, it was enough to be felt. The initial quake felt somewhat like being on a ship, to be honest. Everything moved just enough to make you think you needed to get your sea legs. There was one aftershock, in the evening, that was similar, but most of the aftershocks weren’t noticeable. And fortunately, there was very minor damage closer to the epicenter, and no deaths.

      This was actually my third earthquake in NYC. The first one was in 1985, and that one rattled the glassware. It was only 4.0, but the epicenter was closer to the city. There was one in 2011, and we didn’t even feel that one. We were actually at the pool, and someone saw it on Facebook. :lol: 

    3. Melrick

      I’m happy to stick with one earthquake!  And hopefully that’ll be the last one for you.

      April 5th… would’ve been on my way to watch the eclipse (yes, headed out early)

  23. Had a wonderful time at RennFaire yesterday. I wish I could spend a week there instead of just one day, but maybe I'll go back one more time this year.

  24. There is nothing worse than a sick fur-baby. My wee corgi lass is apparently epileptic, and we need to start her on phenobarbitol for her seizures.

      Hope the medicine works.

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      Sadly, the meds weren't fast enough, and we've had to admit her to the hospital. She's in ICU, and sedated while they try to bring her seizures under control. She's only 16 months old, my poor lass...

    4. JayDee

      JayDee

      Jeez, that's young :( but they'll know what they're doing at the hospital, so I got my fingers crossed for you
