I’m Still Alive!

March 3, 2013 by Debbi

UPDATED — THRICEHelloSweetie

As you’ll see, I’m back on Facebook. As usual, I’ve been working this weekend. This morning, I read the newspaper and thought I’d share some of the interesting headlines. To wit:

I hear that! But when you’re body never stops moving, it’s hard to relax ever.

This was awesome, Gene! My funny sister would actually agree with you, I think. Well, you might be going a bit overboard, but it’s all just a joke, so who cares, right? :) Especially, the last paragraph if you get my meaning. *wink* *wink*

This article brought back memories of a time when my sister, her friend, Beth, and I all went to Dumbarton Oaks together. I used to go all sorts of places and do all sorts of things without thinking twice. Oh, well.

And just so you know, I really do care about books and libraries. So this news is awesome! :)

And for those of you who think lawyers are all money grubbing sleazebags, I’ll let this link speak for itself. Thank you, Miss Manners!

Also, cyber security for all.

Thank you to the Maryland Bar Association Bulletin for sharing. Semper fi!

Unfortunately, this explains everything. :)

Now, if you look on the sidebar, you’ll see that the Sam McRae Mystery Series Facebook page has been restored. I’ll be posting my work on this blog and would greatly appreciate all “likes” you might wish to spare.

If you’ll excuse me, I have a lot of lost time to make up for. Ha!

Have I mentioned that I’m a Terp? Three times? :)

And thank you, Canada, for Kobo and so many other things! :)

Click here to find all my books on Kobo!

Of course, if you look on my website and the sidebar, you’ll see I offer my books through all retailers. But Kobo is awesome! :)

And karma is a bitch.

Finally, what better way to end this than with this awesome quotation and song from Nik Nak’s Old Peculiar?

“Until this week the one thing I knew about the Twilight saga was that it had vampires in it, which was enough to put me off. I didn’t realise it was a romantic fantasy aimed at teenage girls. Turns out it’s possible to be put off something twice before you’ve actually seen it.”
– Charlie Brooker

Tell me about it. :)

PS: I may just skip Bouchercon. I’m thinking about it, anyway.

If I had a real TARDIS, I'd head to Brentwood right now! :)

If I had a real TARDIS, I’d head to Brentwood right now! :)

Of course, I’d fly to Portland first and pick up my funny sister. We’ll get my brother, too, if he wants to come. Also, my niece and nephew. You’re all invited, of course. There’s plenty of room in a TARDIS.

I’ll have to ask my sister to bring the chickens. They’re awesome! :)

Me, my funny sister, and her rubber chickens.

Can you guys believe I'd buy the idea of a brown TARDIS? Ha!

UPDATE: Thank you, Roger Ebert! :) I studied film in college. In fact, I thought about becoming a film critic. So, I’m more than just your average movie geek. :)

Well, instead, I went to law school, and so on … then, finally, I decided if I didn’t start writing, I never would.

And then I had a stroke and got dystonia, and my entire life changed, just like that.

So … as you can read, I’ve had to rethink my social media strategy, because I’ve obviously been doing a very bad job.

Anyway, thank you for tweeting this.

Why we wait for a non-European pope.

As well as this review! :)

Yet, no one is trying to kill you put you out of business has a bone to pick with you or whatever. Ha!

In fact, I went to the Austin Film Festival last year. And I’m going again. There, I said it. Ha!

Isn’t this the most awesome film ending ever?

BTW, feel free to follow me on Pinterest.

EgoIsOurEnemyAnd here’s a quotation for you.

“Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.”
– Albert Camus

UPDATE 2: This is so true! :)

Oh, the irony! :)

TwoSides

UPDATE 3: Three more links, and I’ll shut up.

Big bang theories: violence on screen.

The holocaust just got more shocking.

Walking the country as a spiritual quest.

Well, not to trot out my neurological dirty laundry complain or anything, but I can’t even tie my own shoelaces, anymore. Not like I used to. :-O

As for walking, I made it up 287 steps to get this view! :)

Bite me, everyone! :)

Bite me, everyone! :)
