Blogging Games

I have been tagged by the lovely Alynza Smith and now must come up with ten random things about myself that will be interesting but not frighten any of my pretty birdie followers. Then I shall tag four of my new buddies and the fun continues across the internetwebs!  Here it goes.

Hee hee - gross!


1.   I prefer plastic utensils for most foods, especially sweet or cold things. (But I can act like a normal person when out in public)

2.  My day job often involves playing dress up and being bossy...perfection.

3.  I collect frogs, but not just any frog I have frog standards.

4.  Whenever I leave a car, the seatbelts are twisted.  Same goes for a room with rugs.  Chaos is my calling card.

5.  Stuffed animals displayed in the back window of a car give me rage.

6.  I grew up in a very small town - there were 20 people in my graduating class.

7.  I love recipes and changing them.

8.  I like pink, but not just everything pink, I have pink standards.

9.  Been running around with the same dude for 23 years and he still makes my heart go pitterpat.

10.  I am a lefty and manage to injure myself in the most ridiculous incidents.

That was fun and I'm gonna tag these cool kitties.  Wanna play?  If you don't please see above image!  :)

How interesting! What kind of frogs do you collect, and what are your frog standards? [g]

I don't like stuffed animals staring at me from other cars either. Eegh.

There were about 750 in my graduating class.......LOL

I'mma do my list pretty soon!

Thanks for following my blog. I thought I'd already followed you, but maybe it was on Twitter? I just took care of it. Good to meet another Washingtonian.

Yay! I'm a lefty too, and very proud of it. I'm also very clumsy, I wonder if there's a connection?

Very cool! What kind of frogs? And I think we need to hear more about these pink standards - are you more of a pastel pink kinda gal or hot pink or... ? Also? Your job sounds like fun!

Ha! Stuffed animals drive me crazy, too. And, it's good to know that you have high standards because believe me, not all pink frogs are the good sort, if know what I mean! ;)

Haha, great answers! I am really loving this meme -- so much fun to learn things about my blogging friends that I wouldn't have found out otherwise. :D

Freud would say there was nothing random in anyone's 10 "random" choices. Hope your weekend goes well. Since I am a rare blood courier with a tropical storm bearing down on my community, I will be very, very busy! Roland

Gussying Up

Wanted things to look nice around here as I joined the Platform Building Campaign over at Rach Writes . It's a crash course in this whole network and blog world and I thought it would be a great way to jump into the deep end with my hot pink water wings firmly in place. Plus, I get a sweet badge for participating and you know I like that kind of business! So shiny! Now we mingle, play blogging games, and scratch each other's blogs between the ears. As I am used to collaborating with many artists at a time in my day job, this will be a welcomed boost to only collaborating with the voices in my head. Not that they aren't entertaining. Oooo - don't be scared new writer friends. I am just as normal as you. Looking forward to meeting you in my courage zone (smooches to Bob Mayer ) Now I must finish my cow choreography.

Welcome To The Imago Tavern

T he place was dead as a windshield. She gave the bar top another pointless mirror polish and then she felt it. After all these years she could still sense when The Season began, not in her loins or her blood, but an echo deep in the lacuna of her exoskeleton. She lit a smoke, taking a satisfied gander at her retirement plan. She was long past fertile and now she had a different kind of vault to fill. This little hole-in-the-wall had been just the ticket. It was stocked and ready. Soon it would be crawling with every young bug in the city hopped up on hormones and grass clippings, filling the air with a miasma of pheromones thick enough to choke a lady cockroach and definitely turn one on. With oscitated jaws and frisky antennas, bugs would buy her booze and rub legs across the table until it was time to get to the propagating. Inevitably there would be one lone fellow left moping after the last pair skittered out. She’d eat him; head first this year. Some call it

Write Campaign First Challenge

Image
Here are the rules of the first challenge for the Write Campaign .  Write a short story/ flash fiction story in 200 words or less, excluding the title. It can be in any format, including a poem. Begin the story with the words, “The door swung open.” If you want to give yourself an added challenge (optional), use the same beginning words and end with the words: "the door swung shut." For those who want an even greater challenge, make your story 200 words EXACTLY!   I f you watched the video in my last post you KNOW I took both of the extra challanges.  Nerd power!!! Between The Rock and A Hard Place The door swung open, completing its dramatic arch and return, then slamming closed in her face. So much for slinking in unnoticed. Gingerly she tested the end of her nose, relieved when it did not wheeze like an accordion. The wood grain was quite lovely up close. In the long second before kissing oak, she’d glimpsed him sitting on the white couch surrou
