Last night my dh and I went to see one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s homes. The sun was setting over the mountains, turning the sky a brillant pink, orange, and yellow. I must say that although I was only vaguely familiar with his work, I was quite impressed with his home. He certainly had an eye for artistry and design that few today have matched. It made me completely rethink what I’d want in a home and the outdoor surroundings for that matter. If you ever get a chance to see one of his buildings then by all means jump on it.

Man, I hate this time of year for television. Nothing is on and everything is a repeat. I suppose I should preface this by saying I don’t watch a lot of television, but I do have a few favorite shows.

It’s truly sad when repeats of Good Eats are better than anything else playing. Speaking of, isn’t Good Eats a great show. I’ve learned more about the science of cooking watching that show than all my biology and chemistry classes combined. I highly recommend you checking it out if you haven’t already.

So what’s left after that…they cancelled my Jake 2.0(pout). The CSI’s are all repeats. Monk hasn’t started his new season yet. I’m floating in the sea of nothing’s on. Somebody toss me a life jacket.

Well last night was the final conference committee meeting for the Desert Dreams Conference. It looks to be quite a conference. Donald Maass, Diana Gabaldon, Sharon Sala, Christina Skye will be there, just to name a few. Conference, Conference, Conference. Picture conga line here.

The third novella I’m working on for Brava will reach the halfway point by the end of the week. Yeah! And plans to redesign the website are coming along nicely. Stay tuned for the unveiling.

I spent my Saturday at the movies and managed to squeeze in a visit to the bookstore to boot. Truly my idea of a perfect Saturday. First dh and I went to see Hellboy. I’m not familiar with the comic, so I am not sure if it followed a particular storyline. I know boo, hiss, boo. It was a fairly enjoyable film, not as good as I’d hoped, but enjoyable. Next up was Scooby Doo 2. Yes, I know the stories are hokey and there are much better animation movies out there. It doesn’t matter one iota to this gal. Personally I enjoyed Scooby Doo 2. I left the movie feeling good and isn’t that what movies are all about?

Or at least I hope that’s the case, since we’re raining steadily today. If we didn’t need it so bad I’d start singing the Rain, Rain Go Away song. Anyway, enough about the weather.

I’m still working away on my third novella for Kensington Brava. It’s going well. I’ve passed the quarter mark and have charted out the rest of the story. I will try to get more excerpts up once I’ve edited novella two and three. Also some more Brava news. I’ve joined the Brava Authors site.

Until next time…does anyone have an umbrella?
