Catching Up

January 28th, 2008 by Tabatha

   cimg7221.jpg It’s been a bit. I guess getting over that really bad night took a little longer than I thought. There was screaming. There was crying. There was door slamming. Not fun. Scary. It’s over now, and I remembered St. John’s Wort, thanks to a commenter. Thank you, Erika. I haven’t given Seth any yet, as he seems to be doing O.K. right now, but It’s helped me feel better.

Saturday, Gary and I went to a Martin Atkins seminar at Insomkneeacks. It’s mostly directed towards musicians, but there was a good amount of information that applied to any entrepreneur/artist/promoter/businessperson/regular guy. He’s also pretty funny. Partly because of his sense of humor and partly because he’s neurotic and appears to be afflicted with ADD.  It was 100%  good experience. It’s a shame more local musicians were there; he could’ve helped improve the music scene. It certainly needs help.

Today was full of eating ice cream, taking pictures of a farm, watching Sex and Breakfast and cleaning up. Tonight was drinking homemade spiced cider, playing rummy, and my feet freezing on the porch. I’d say it’s a good Sunday. Seth was good. I wasn’t tired all day. It will feel good to go to bed, though.

The photo is of a small field with 3 cows in it. The colors haven’t been touched up. The contrast was gorgeous. The color of the grass is so pretty. There will be more photos on my Flickr soon.

Leo from ZenHabits (one of my favorite blogs. top 2 if not #1)  recently opened a new blog. It focuses completely on writing, and is geared towards all types of writers. Check it out at Write To Done.

What it takes to read

December 9th, 2007 by Tabatha

Today was a lazy morning. I woke up around 9am and stayed in bed until11:30am. I got out of bed once to make some cappucino (with whipped topping!) in my snowman mug and then crawl back into bed with Morrisson, StringBean and The Time Traveler’s Wife. I read 108 pages until I decided it was time to get up. I got that book from PaperBackSwap sometime last year. I haven’t been reading much in the past couple of years. I have books stacked up that I’ve acquired to read. Jon let me borrow One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, but I read only a couple of chapters into both of them before something came up. I’m thinking the best way to get time in for reading is in the morning instead of at night. By the time I drag myself into bed, all I can think of is sleep.

Now that I’m thinking about it, I think I’ll go check out PBS again and see if there are any books I’d like to read there.

—Time goes by—

I had two credits still, so I ordered Zen to Go and The 100 Simple Secrets of Happy People: What Scientists Have Learned and How You Can Use It .
