I'm working hard trying to avoid writing a story I've got to finish. I have about 350 words so far. I told myself it would be about 500.

Today, my friend Margo and I are going to see Frozen II in IMAX.  That'll be fun. :)

It was!  Frozen II was pretty good.

It got a 75% from reviewers on Rotten Tomatoes, but 94% from audiences.

Frozen II had a more comlicated story than the first movie, and no "Let It Go"-equivalent song.

The songs were good, but I don't think that (m)any of them will have a recording life outside the movie.

Can you tell us what the story is about?

It's about a heart-healthy beef that can actually help you lose weight. I did finish the piece. It was about 550 words.

I don't write enough anymore to make these things easy. I guess I need to buckle down and do it.

Before the movie, we went to Casa Mia in Lacey for an early dinner.

Speaking of my financial straits, that damned property is not moving and if we do not sell it in December, then I am stuck in January with a property tax bill I am unable to pay.  We need some selling vibes, DRs!

K9 Kastle, the animal rescue group from whom I adopted Annabelle, is having a holiday adoption event.  These are the photos with the flyer.





They are so cute! ;D

And I finally hit Barnes and Noble during the Criterion sale. Only picked up four, one of which (Thief or Blood Simple) will be a Christmas present. I'm keeping Ozu's Good Morning, a charming comedy I've seen twice before and just love, and Time Bandits.

I've never heard of Ozu's Good Morning, but I love Time Bandits.

Submissions to literary agents have begun again. I sent five this morning, and we'll see what happens.

Sending good vibes!

Back from a decent run-through - some fun stuff, some sloppy stuff, and still too long - but people are getting used to going faster, so that's good.  And great to be back on our set - which is the way it will be from now on.

Great that JohnG had no problem with Naked Space.  I suspect newer players will be fine.

I tried to post a photo from today’s con but I’m being told that is too large to post

Vixmom, do you mean this one?
