I think I am finally ready to return. I should warn that this entry has some not so pleasant descriptions of the end of a life so I will understand if people chose not to read.

( Where do I start? )

I have missed a few days but the weekend was a bit of a challenge for me. Still, gotta keep trying this and today was a much better day.

( Starting from today again... )

I did think it was going to be a fail with the happy but

( I found some )

Almost had nothing...

( Short )

Scooped this from karaokegal for the fun of it. And guess I'm doing what I love...

You Should Be a Science Fiction Writer

Your ideas are very strange, and people often wonder what planet you're from. And while you may have some problems being "normal," you'll have no problems writing sci-fi. Whether it's epic films, important novels, or vivid comics... Your own little universe could leave an important mark on the world!

Still at it.

( But the list is short... )

Back to reality after a great weekend at the Writer's conference and after spending a few days in Seattle. I really need to post this today.

And a note to all you lovely people. I will catch up on the lj and with commenting. Life has just been a bit much these days.

( The Missing Days )

In a hotel room in Seattle with a very slooooow internet connection...

( I'm on vacation... )

For the most part, this day has been a great one. 

( Saturday... )

A day among writers of assorted genres gave a great starting point for the happy.

( From the conference... )

Yes I am finding it!!

( Late night and just picking the best of them... )

Hard to believe I've actually been doing this for almost two weeks!!
( Short but still going... )

 

I can do this.  Yes, I can.

( One more time... )

The world seemed very bleak today but there are always glimmers of hope...

( And there is always hope... )

Hard to believe this is day ten of this but here we go…

( Happy snapshots )

After having an easy time of it yesterday, today proved to be a struggle but I still managed to find the happy.

( Because I have to keep doing this... )

Not sure why, but these seem to be easier and easier to do.

( My happy place... )

-Ten minute commute to work this morning.  Woohoo!
-Venti non-fat, no-foam latte
-Talking with Cheryl at work who has gotten her dream of moving to Kelowna.  Seeing how excited she was about getting a transfer made me smile.
-Going to a restaurant for dinner - Boston Pizza, not exactly gourmet - and finding a very yummy pasta dish. 
-Eating the same with an accompanying glass of Merlot.  Again with the Yummy!!!
-Being amazed and thankful when entering Jim's hospital room and seeing him out of his bed.  Okay, so it was just a trip to the washroom but hell, he was out of bed.  Soooooo much better than yesterday. 
-Hugging Allisa.  There is nothing like a human touch.
-Watching sweet teenage angst on ST:TNG as Wesley falls in love with an alien life form.  Hurray for the omnisexual.  :) And hurray for Guinan who expounded about love, that it's different everytime it happens.  YES, I wanted to shout.
-Watching a very hot kiss on a commercial for a show about Whistler (where the 2010 Olympics are being held) and melting.
-Heehee!  Tuvock starting his Pon Farr.  Yah, watching Voyager and finding another positive about it.  :)
-Feeling loved and I do

Today, things that made me happy:

RED WINE for the win!!
