Settling in

I’m finally feeling good physically, and things settling down with the art show. The lead up to the opening this weekend will be stressful, because that’s just how it is, but, really, both my boss and I are laughing at how ahead of the game we are. And with my kitchen done being refurbished, I […]

And we’re on the other side

Yes, my hell week is over. 85% of the art show has been completed, and yes, I am very tired. Well, I was. Today I’m more hungover on too much pernil and candy, but that’s the feast of the giant chocolate bunny for you. I’m planning on some writing today for sure. It’s quiet and […]

Hell Week

So my job has an annual art show, and this year we switched it from Fall to Spring. And normally we’re fighting to get everything done between the end of summer (a busy time for us) and the beginning of fall (a busy time for everyone else). And with the switch, we used our downtime […]

As Usual, Chelsea Childling

The old, uneasy feeling of too many people watching her slithered down Chelsea’s back as she rang Andy’s doorbell. She truly hated New York City.

When the camera on the door didn’t move, she rang again. After waiting far too long for Andy to acknowledge her, Chelsea raised a fist and banged a few times. “It’s me. Open up.”

Quiet time

After a few weeks of working on my company’s web site, I am thoroughly sick of being online. That said, I’ll be doing that for a few more weeks. More than that I am readying Chelsea for publishing this weekend. No sunshine today though. I woke up to snow. More than a dusting, but not […]

Time to get up, time to get going

After a long, ass winter, it’s 70 degrees this week. And sunny.So I got up and got right to work!Writing?Um, no… I did yard work. My property isn’t huge, but the previous owners had extensive gardens. Most of which need way too much water for a county in drought for past decade. So we’re scaling […]

Upcoming

Doing better, but the winter continues to trickle in. Therefore, I keep having minor setbacks.Yes, I can walk the two miles into work, but I will sleep for 10 to 12 hours minimum that night. And should I try to do it twice in one week… forget about having any energy whatsoever for a few […]

Overworked

I had a busy weekend at work. I learned how to rewire some old-fashioned light fixtures so that they will work with modern bulbs. No, that is not something everyone who works at a museum has to know. However, between my mother the machinist and my theater days, I’ve been graced with a love a […]

Keegan’s Story

Keegan rubbed his long, thin fingers together as he blew on them. His knees bumped against the only other piece of furniture that fit in the bunk, the bed her giant mutt of a dog was currently hogging.
The tiny, windowless shack she rented was warm and dry, and definitely made for a single person to stay in. Chelsea wasn’t sure she could get around Keegan to the bathroom.
He flipped his dark hair out of his eyes. “I hate this weather.”
Chelsea pulled the covers tighter around her and Bentley. “I didn’t call you.”

Oh, boy

So, um, Saturday was March 1st, and like, I totally knew that, but somehow, I forgot that… and scheduled the story for next Saturday. And didn’t realize until late Saturday night, and then I realized I had posted the unedited version, and then I realized I hadn’t saved the edited version, and um… yeah, so […]
