OK, so the magazine I've been working on is now (partially) available online. Check it out at www.metabodog.com. It's getting better all the time. When issue #2 is available, read it: it's golden.

For the locals: the Wednesday edition of the mountainx showcased my picture. It's already on here, and in color... but it was fun to be in print.

I'm freaked the fuck out:...

I'm writing this story... now I'm trying to relate to today's youth... so, I'm listening to really angst-y music. And, oh my god, it feels so good! Reliving my teen years with (slightly more) wisdom is magnificent. I was an angry mother-fucker... still am... but in very different ways. Anyone else feel this way?

I think I've finally recovered from St. Patty's. It was a rough weekend, but eye-opening. I've decided to join the Lent bandwagon a bit late and pass on the liquor for now. Hopefully, no one will call AA yet.

I had a photo shoot on Sunday: hair, makeup, the works. I was the one they asked to do some "topless" shots. I can't wait to get the pictures back... hopefully my areolas are covered in them...

Today has been highs and lows. For some reason I'm writing here when I absolutely can't write for my workshop tomorrow. It's the pressure I guess. I didn't find out I was submitting until 5:00. Yuck. Plus a stupid boy I want doesn't want me anymore. Actually, two stupid boys, but one is totally unimportant.

I had to wait on a convention of Mary Kay...

Went to see a great local group last night... that is, they were local... then they moved... now they've moved back so I guess they're local again. Anyway, THE GOODIES kick ass! They're kinda this mix of Vaudevillian Rock Opera. Anyway, it's always a fun show and I'm glad they're back. A first show for many friends I dragged along - and they had a...

Bailey's and Coffee! It's that time of year again. It's so cold today that I've been writing with gloves on - lots of mistakes. In response to those of you that actually care and were so nice as to ask... I suppose that you can read my stuff and things when I get published. Or, atleast when I finally get my portfolio in order... I...

It doesn't get much better than autumn in the mountains of WNC. The weather, the colors, the smells - exquisite. My mood now stands in perfect contrast to when I woke up this morning - I realize that. Getting a good critique on my writing, perhaps getting a position at the college's new literary journal - things are looking up. And cooking - so many...
