Not only is this a flashback to my younger days, but it’s also a mash-up of two awesome shows.
What are some of your favorite shows?

Finally Friday
It’s Friday! Wooooo!
Between the final Panthers football game and Thanksgiving with our extended family, it’s gonna be a crazy weekend, but a fun one. What do you have planned?

It’s that time of the year again…
Today is November 1 and you know what that means…It’s time to get crazy!
Crazy like a writer, that is.
That’s write (see what I did there? 😊), today begins NaNoWriMo, which for some crazy reason I decided to try again this year. But I haven’t written a word on my novel yet today, and I probably won’t, which is going to put me at a startling deficit when tomorrow rolls around.
Don’t get me wrong—I’ve written plenty of words today. I’ve probably even hit the magical 1,667 mark. But the words I wrote weren’t for any personal projects, so alas, they don’t count.
November 1 also means that NaBloPoMo has begun in earnest, which I’m hoping will get me back on track when it comes to my dearly-beloved-yet-sadly-neglected, wordy home here on the interwebs. But with my friends at #TeamTinyPeppers cheering me on, I’m sure I can get back in the swing of things this time.
Because willpower—I has it. Sometimes. If food isn’t involved. 😊
So what about you? Are you participating in any of this month’s writerly activities? I want to hear all about what’s going on with you down in the comments!

And now, a brief return to pictures, part 38
Everybody say, “Go Panthers!” 😀

Things ’90s girls do at slumber parties
After some discussion, we decided we didn’t actually need to complete this task because we were there for most of our childhood funny stories. And oddly enough, Girl Talk played a part in one of them. 🙂
- Drink Clearly Canadian and Surge.
- Hit the mall.
- Blast the Backstreet Boys and the Spice Girls at top volume.
- Play Heartthrob and Girl Talk.
- Chill out with Little Nicky.
The corollary to all this, of course, is that we felt super, super old. Okay, I felt super, super old. But it was a heck of a lot of fun. 🙂

Too cute to handle
Girls’ night means there will be pictures. Girls’ night with my bestie means there will be much silliness.
But who knew girls’ night would mean there would be this much cuteness?
Oh, all right, I totally knew. 😀
How are you spending your Friday night?

Power up!
Did you know I have superpowers? I do! Really! 😀 They include, but are not limited to:
- Telling bad jokes.
- Recognizing actresses from one 30-second scene in a movie that came out 27 years ago in something new.
- Having
passablegood grammar skills. - Knowing an impossible amount of random useless trivia.
- Making my family laugh.
A while back, Seymour and I were discussing what our superpowers would be if we had them, which got me thinking about things I’ve done that a much younger me never ever even considered as life possibilities. We decided that my superpowers would involve bad jokes and grammar, and my new favorite joke was actually a product of this conversation:
Yes, yes, I know – they’re both groaners. But if I can’t let my nerd flag fly here, then where the heck can I?
How about you – what are your superpowers?

Today I’m thankful for…
…in no particular order:
- A functional washer and dryer.
- All the caffeine.
- Good health.
- The best husband in the history of marriage.
- Cherry pie.
- My friends and family around the world.
- Wonderful writing groups.
- A job that pays the bills.
- The car that gets me there (and everywhere else).
- Bad jokes.
- The small load setting on my new washer, because sometimes you just don’t have enough socks to do a large load of whites.
Happy Thanksgiving, everybody! I hope your day was full of family, food, and fun!

Today I’m thankful for…
It’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving is in just a couple of days. Surely it was only New Year’s last week?
At any rate, I’d like to take the rest of the week to write about things I am thankful for, and today, I’m thankful for friends, both old and new. I’m lucky enough to have a few old friends, people I’ve known since I was Thumper’s age (which is to say, five), people who’ve seen me through many a rough patch in life as well as many a happy day. Friends like them don’t come around often, and while it’s crazy – not to mention slightly scary – to think that we’ve been friends for almost thirty years, I’m beyond glad to know that some friendships can survive just about anything that life throws our way.
I’m also thankful for Facebook and MySpace (the old version – may it rest in peace) for allowing me to reconnect with old friends I’ve lost track of over the years. If not for MySpace, I’m not sure I’d have reconnected with one old friend so soon and if not for Facebook, there are quite a few dear friends who would have likely remained confined to memories. I reconnected with one such friend over the weekend, and I am so excited to meet up with her Friday and catch up in person. Yay! 😀
I’m also thankful for blogging and social media in general for allowing me to make so many new friends, friends I would never have met without the internet. The Alliance of Worldbuilders, the Ink Slingers’ League, and the Cheer Peppers are just some of the friends I’m lucky to have made in the last several years, and there are many more out there.
What about you – what are you thankful for?

Uh…
It’s been a whirlwind weekend full of family, friends, and fun. If you’d seen me, you might have mistaken me for my dear departed kitty cat, Shadow:
I feel like I’ve been all over the state this weekend, but it sure was fun, and I have a slew of things to write about in that favorite moments book I bought.
What about you – how did the weekend treat you? Are you ready for Monday?

Suddenly they all died. The end.
