Stymied…

So much to do, so little time…

Not getting much done, writing-wise, because I have so many other things to do - you know, like post-season baseball and my parents are coming in tonight to spend three days with us and then there’s the puppy.

Take a look at my personal eye candy, Andres Torres. I adore him. What an athlete - ‘K, Andres, now hit. Hit a big one for me!

I have always been a sucker for athletes. T.Z. for instance, was my 8th grade boyfriend - the tightest tight end in town. He looked dang good in his football jersey, especially running down the field with the football cradled in his arms.

M.K., the 6’8″ captain of the high school basketball team. Sweet as pie. One of the very nicest guys I ever dated.

Hubby and I went running around the lakes in Minneapolis on one of our few dates. He’s a runner, but he also played football and wrestled. Gotta love those wrestling moves! Wrestling is really big in the Midwest - I mention it in Beauty and the Feast - it’s especially popular at the University of Iowa, my alma mater.

On another topic, author Sharon Lathan has agreed to come by and talk Jane Austen. I’ll try to woman-up and put my two-cents in, but I’m still on team Bronte. In the meantime, I’m going to reread my Austen books - got several of them on my shelves.

If you’re team is in the play-offs - go team! Fingers crossed that the Giants pull it off again tonight!

Hey, that’s me! Talk about cool! I had so much fun with these ladies - they are interesting, talented, energetic and amazingly good sports. A sense of humor is a must when it’s me talking about S-E-X. ‘Cuz you know, I can be pretty dang silly, and or, weird. Here’s their site. I wish there was an RWA chapter of some sort in my area. It’s sweet to have the advantages of in-person peer support.

Thanks, Sandy, for inviting me to speak.

I got to meet author, Sharon Lathan - a member…http://www.sharonlathan.net/

She kind of jump-started a new interest in Jane Austen - an author I really haven’t thought much about, despite the hype, since high school.

So anyway, watching the Giants in Philly and then it’s off to bed because I really have not slept must in a couple days.
