Streakin' Strength

Seeing as how we're in the middle of a heat wave and drought here in Houston, you can never have too much sunscreen. Here's a new brand I'm thinking of trying out.

Too bad we didn't have this back in the seventies--the glory days of streaking.

Does Will Ferrell ever pass up an opportunity to show his bare ass? lulz

RWA Conference

Just got back from the national RWA conference in D.C. (what a beautiful city!) where a great time was had by all.

The positives:

(a) The hotel was fabulous (see photo). Primo location, tripped out room with a fridge, lovely grounds...and all within walking distance of lots of great restaurants.

(b) A most excellent meeting with my editor. We're on the same page, career-wise. (pun intended, naturally.)

(c) Gossip...er, strategized with old friends.

(d) Had a most interesting experience at the Harlequin/Silhouette party, which is always the hottest ticket in town. (Srsly, I sweated my ass off.)

(e) Met lots of publishing bigwigs. Maybe even a little wig or two.

(f) All my new clothes fit despite a slight water retention problem.

(g) Got me all fired up and now I'm ready to rock and roll.

The negatives:

One word...blisters.
