I’ve done a lot of soul-searching and have realized, both by reading my food book and talking to Ashley Leia in the comments, that I need to face my junk food addiction head on. What I need to do is wait until I have an intense craving for junk food, preferably for some I canContinue reading “Updates from Meg world!”

Escaping Pandora
This is my story for NYC Midnight’s short story competition, round 1. To those of you who helped me make it better, thanks!! 🙂 The assignment was to write a short story (2,500 words or less) in the mystery genre, including a soldier, and involving a prediction.

The day the music died.
I did a search to make sure I’ve never given this title to a blog post before, but what do you know? I haven’t. So, yeah, the music died earlier. I was at the gym doing my morning workout on the treadmill when it happened. Thus, I was forced to watch the treadmill’s television forContinue reading “The day the music died.”
My new goals
It’s occurred to me that I’m not really an unhealthy eater (although I certainly can be), but I’m not capable of dieting enough for weight loss. So I’ve been trying to watch what I eat while exercising myself to death. After a few days of crunching numbers and seeing what’s possible, my goal is toContinue reading “My new goals”
Ask Amy’s column today is pretty darned good!
Dear Amy: I am in a terrible relationship that’s lasted two tumultuous years. I met him after recovering from an operation.

He’s hadContinue reading “Ask Amy’s column today is pretty darned good!”

Don’t panic, but I’m angry. Large Flatulent Marge, my irate alter ego, has taken temporary (I hope) possession of me. I can tell she’s here because my head is buzzing with hot air and I want to throttle some poor, unsuspecting citizen. (No one’s nearby, so… that’s good.) I didn’t make it to the finalsContinue reading “I hate NYC Midnight!”
Great news! And misery.
It’s been a hard few days (yesterday and so far today) for reasons that I’m sure are temporary. Yesterday, I was an agitated mess, because: I couldn’t work on my woodworking. I’ve got some items coming from Amazon later today, and not yet having them ground the project to a halt. I was waiting allContinue reading “Great news! And misery.”
Random musings of happytimes days and procrastinating on shower time!
I don’t think I’ve blogged for a while, and today feels like a lazy day. There are things I want to do, but they’d require me to take a shower first, and taking a shower can be a huge production. Floss and brush my teeth, lay out clean clothes, coax myself into the water… Yeah.Continue reading “Random musings of happytimes days and procrastinating on shower time!”
