Resolutions....

So yesterday Mysti asked if anyone had any resolutions. I do. I want to have a story pubbed. I mean really pubbed.

I've got two going (Well three). One's M/M, one's M/F with BDSM elements, and one (a set of four eventually) with Kealie.

M/M one is done...not polished and not edited enough to send anywhere, but it's done.

So that's my resolution. To get at least one story pubbed this year. It's a goal I've got anyway, so why not make it a resolution and something I can hypothetically achieve. (Don't want to toot my own horn or undercut myself...that's the best on the fence I can come up with.)

Stop back tomorrow for our First Hottie of the New Year. Oh, and the poll for Best Hottie of 2010 is coming very soon. Promise.

To Resolve or Not To Resolve?

I was hanging out on Jennifer Crusie's Facebook page yesterday, when I saw this status:

I've decided my New Year's Resolution: I resolve not to make any resolutions. That way if I don't improve, I'm not breaking any promises, and if I do improve, hey, BONUS.

And I got to thinking: do I want to make New Year's resolutions this year? And if so, what kind?

Do I want to lose weight? Write more? Hang with my family more? Clean the house better? Learn to speak a foreign language?

Or do I not set them because to do so frequently ends badly...

I'm still on the fence.

What about you? Are you making resolutions? And if so -- what are they?

Happy Hump Day!

I saw this and about fell over laughing. Yeah, I find it hysterical.

Happy Hump Day!!!

Christmas Eve!!!!!

Looks like my day happened to be Christmas Eve! Didja get your last minute shopping done? I did. Finally.

Here's my list: (Don't tell them yet!!)
A pair of purple thigh high boots for Kealie Girl. Goes with her fairy costume.

A whip for Mysti, so she can convince her CB to come out and play. (He's shy.)

Fur lined cuffs for Jenny Kat. She needed replacement ones.

The boys? I can't say in public but they were all VERY satisfied.

What would I like? A contract, of course. Would help if I bothered to sub something. (I'm getting there. "Permanent" is almost done.)

And as it says in the old story: Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!!!!

Pretty Paper and Fancy Bows

I love wrapping presents, but I have a question. Do you shop for specific paper for specific people? Or are you one paper fits everyone?

I'm the first type. I have about 15 rolls of Christmas wrap. Gerard and Luke have a secret (well, not now) love of Batman. So they get Batman paper. Jeremy loves Scooby Doo. So he gets Scooby paper. The youngling? He gets Star Wars. Loves ole Darth Vader. Mom, she gets something with pretty birds or snowmen. You know, the sparkly, glittery kind. Except this year, because I fell down on the job--long story--I tend to give those I truly love presents with lots of bows. I don't put tons of ribbon cuz I'm good with whips and chains, but not knots. (not knots...heee heee). Dad gets something with tractors on them.

Oh, and yeah, I shop for the cats and the dogs. Sure. They love having Christmas socks and getting things. Who doesn't like getting things? I love giving, so it all works out.

One more thing: What do YOU want for Christmas? I don't have a very long list this year. I have the boys already. Have the pets. Have the youngling.

So what do I want? Something sparkly!!! Ruby, Garnet, or Sapphire and I'm good.

What about you?
