Oh what a difference 130 odd days make....

since last I've blogged.

First of all, Happy New Year! Although I was working on New Year's Eve, I had a grand old time ringing in the new year! Work, you say? And FUN? Yes, I say!

Anyhow, no way to get into what all has transpired since my last post, so I'll hit some high notes, and low notes...


Cousin's wedding up Northern Cali Wine country. High.
Air conditioning going out in car in August in the desert. Low. (Still to get fixed)
Got promotion at work. High. (They're still not paying me enough. Low. :P)
Quick trip to Vegas to see best bud. High.
Losing 100 bucks at a black jack table on said trip to Vegas. Low.
Losing 100 bucks to the coolest Elvis-impersonating dealer ever. High.

Finding and buying my CONDO!! Super High! (Closing in a few weeks)

Finding out that my chapbook is going to be published! Super High! (Don't worry, you'll get the post card for ordering a copy)

Seriously, I'm super excited about the little chapbook and happy it found a home!! It's a small indie publisher called Finishing Line Press (www.finishinglinepress.com), and while it won't be avaliable in your local Barnes and Noble, you will be able to order it on Amazon.com. Dude, I'll have a book at Amazon.com!!
