File it under Misc….

Well it’s Monday and can I say “Thank god”…YES the house is quiet once again now that the kids and Jose are off to work and school. This past weekend was kind of boring, although I did make a trip to the library and check out 3 books, 2 of which were Stephen King novels. Jose keeps telling me I should read something worthwhile like “how-to” manuals or self improvement books, but to be honest I haven’t been able to read those since college. I think I got burned out on them…Now I just want to read for pleasure.

Dragon and I spoke on the phone last week and decided that we hated all of the people who are probably going to be on the ballot for the Presidential election. So we’ve decided that we should do an on-line campaign and I should run.   Dragon said she could be my campaign manager and she could have toilet paper rolls made up that said ”Vote Goldbloom…She’ll help your @ss out!” I’d vote for me…maybe!

Well we have another winter storm heading our way and the temperature this morning registered “friggin cold” on the thermometer. Of course the boys couldn’t find their gloves, and I think we’re on pair number 3 for each of them this winter. I should just start buying them by the case, because I know they’re going to lose them. Well that’s all I have for now, maybe I’ll have something a little more exciting next time.

10 Signs a book has been written by me

This is a meme that I saw over at Kat’s blog, and it seemed like one I could have fun with so I decided to give it a try.

1. The cover would be a photo-shopped creation that has been changed at least 5 times before going to print.
2.  My book would come with a warning label “Rated-R: Due to graphic violence, gore, and language”.
3. The two main characters would be a pair of sisters who were cynical and always harassing each other.  (does that sound familiar?)
4. There would definitely be a golden retriever named “Hollywood” in it.
5. 1 out of 10 people won’t be able to put it down.
6. The book would have to be written under an assumed name.
7. My book would definitely have at least one pop-up in it.
8. 9 out of 10 people will use it to line the bottom of their bird cage.
9. My book wouldn’t be on Oprah’s top ten list, but Dennis Leary would love it.
10. My book signings would consist of me signing 5 books and then spending the rest of the time harassing the passers by.

I think it would be fun to see Dragon, Dazd, & Hammer do this one….If they want to.

What to write?

Hello everyone remember me? How are you guys doing? Is everyone okay?

I think my blogging hiatus has interfered with my ability to write, since I’ve attempted to post on several different occasions with no success. I just can’t seem to break this writer’s block that I have going on…any suggestions? I need to write something quick too, because Dazd & Dragon are planning some sort of hostile takeover of my site.

I can’t really explain why I haven’t been blogging, because I don’t really know myself. I have however been lurking on your sites from time to time as you might have noticed. I even attended a blog meet in December and got to meet Dazd of “Dazd and confused” & Jerry from “Back home again“, it was a great time. Of course Dragon was there too causing trouble as usual (the monkey on my back so to speak).

 While Dragon was here for the holidays she taught my son a martial arts move called the crane…apparently it involves falling on your ass and rolling around on the ground while groaning…I still don’t get it. Dragon was also caught molesting the life sized Santa at my parents house, oh well I guess every family has to have their black sheep. 

The kids are all doing well in school this year…what a relief! My youngest son (8yrs old) has had a few minor incidents, but even the teacher could hardly keep from laughing when she called me. The latest incident involved him sticking a jump rope between his legs and swinging it around while pretending it was a part of his anatomy…BOYS…I’ll never understand them.

Anyway I’ll try to do better about posting. I know you’ve heard that before, but this time I mean it….really!
