I have been writing this post, over and over and over, trying best to figure out just how I was going to phrase my words to you today. There's so much I want to say, so I imagine this will be a wordy post. I figured the best way to get through it all was to break it down into … Read More »

My Very Big Blog Announcement
I'll just cut right to the chase. Who's got two thumbs and is going to be on The Katie Show? Katie Couric, perhaps you've heard of her? :) She has her own national daytime television talk show and I'm going to be on it!! I know I had put a teaser out there like, a … Read More »
12dp3dt: Beta Day
It's beta day. I left the house at 6am, the night receding, the crescent moon like a sleepy eye waking from a dream. All summer, I'd been searching the night skies for Orion, not realizing he's an autumnal constellation. As I walked to my car, I looked up and there he was: … Read More »
11dp3dt: Pulling in the Oars
A Wise Woman once told me: sometimes, you have to pull in your oars and let the river take you where it wants to go. You have to let go of that control and instead be carried by - and ultimately, trust - the Universe. There is no amount of wishing, praying, begging or … Read More »

Trashy YA Novels Make Two-Week Waits AWESOME
When I saw the book trailer for Matched, Ally Condie's young adult novel where an imperfect love fights against all odds in a totalitarian dystopia, I was intrigued: The first in a trilogy of titles, sadly, Matched will forever live in the shadow of Suzanne Collins' wildly … Read More »
6dp3dt: Dubious Hope/Hopeful Doubt
The unnatural state of being PUPO, that is, pregnant until proven otherwise, is that you might as well feel a bit like Janus, the Roman god of two faces. It's like constantly walking around with two simultaneously thought bubbles over my head, one saying "I'm pregnant!" the other … Read More »
3dp3dt: The Last Day of House Arrest
While I might not be wearing an ankle bracelet, it kind of feels like it. Today is (finally!) day four of my doctor-ordered four days of bedrest. Yes, I'm fully aware of how nuts that is. Dr. Warmenfriendly is uber-conservative about some things. To say I'm a little stir-crazy … Read More »
