Tomorrow is Pi Day! For those of you unfamiliar with this "holiday," here's a blurb from the official site - Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) around the world.

MM – A Tale of Two Hard Drives Revisited
Last Thursday, my computer shut down and Microsoft updated with nary a please or thank you. By Friday, my rig was toast. Thankfully, hubby is Hardware Geek to my Internet G33k, and got things straightened out by Saturday night - a process made easier by the fact that when he built my computer, he installed...

MM – I’m a REAL Writer
Today marks the day that I feel I've become a real writer. No, not because I'm working on my fifth Maeve Sawyer book (for a total of seven, first draft novels sitting on my hard drive). And not for the other bazillions of reasons I should know I'm already a real writer. But for me,... Continue Reading →
Musing Monday – New year, new look
I credit my father for my ability to code. Granted, I’m no wizard at it, but I have enough knowledge to get by, thanks to being introduced to MBasic back in the day by Dad, who figured out how create programs and databases and encouraged me to do the same. No big surprise that when... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart love
As we learned in the colorful episode of The Powerpuff Girls, Mime for a Change... Love Makes the World Go 'Round. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdBDbGEdyEM In that spirit, when I saw the following messages pop up in my Facebook newsfeed, written by my cyber-friend Natali, I knew it was time to break out the crayons and channel my...

FF – Must See Cyber TV
For this installment of Fandom Friday, I decided to dig deep in the archives of my former blog, and you'll never guess (you being any fellow RvBers peeking in) what I found! A fangirl post about Jesse Cowell! I'd almost forgotten the phenomenon that was Jeskid, but I'm happy to say he's still hanging around... Continue Reading →
MM – Labor of love
Hubby & I left the house this afternoon at 4pm, heading to the store to pick up a few things (none of which were holiday related). We got home around 10pm. I swear we got sucked into a time vortex that somehow turned a half hour into six. The end result (besides the wallet damage)... Continue Reading →
FF – The one I love
To the one I love. Okay, technically, I have had many loves. In fact, too many to count. To be honest, I don't even know if I could remember all their names at the moment, there have been so many. But there was that one, in the beginning (not my first but definitely my most... Continue Reading →
Blog on!
November was a tremendous learning experience for me. I was able to complete both National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) and National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo), and when it was done, I still felt the urge to sit at the keyboard and peck away (unlike past years, when I felt creatively burnt out well into the...

Money can buy happiness
Happy Freakout (aka Black) Friday! Rather than spending the day spending money and shopping, I decided to hang at home, meander memory lane with my mother, chat with my children, and hope for hubby to return home soon. Oh, and wrangle words - here are a few more from my former, fictional self. Money Can... Continue Reading →
Nude beginnings
My fictional self, known as Catherine Trevor (InternetG33k if you're nasty) has another repost she would like to share. We've had many conversations recently as to who should be in charge of this blog from now on. I'm still not sure how it will all play out, but in the meantime, here is another of... Continue Reading →
