It is not January anymore!

You probably already know this. But you might not know how excited I am that January is gone, bang a gong, because it also means a huge, HUGE (did I mention it was huge?) revision to my book, The Vortex Game, is now over.

Commence much cheering and rejoicing.

As you can see, I didn’t really blog much in January. Sorry! But I have a really good reason. Er, reasons. See, in addition to editing, I was also traveling. With Rob! We went to Destin, Florida, to hang out with my parents. Here, look! It’s proof! It’s me by the beach!

And here’s Rob, too. Look how sporty his new hat is!

Speaking of sporty, I kind of snorted diet Coke out my nose when I saw there was a store in Destin called SPORTY LADY. Here, I took a picture of it:

I really wanted to go inside it, but we ran out of time. We had margaritas to drink, people.

The other thing that happened in Florida? The NFL playoffs. And the Packers made it! They’re going to the Superbowl! Here is the Packer shrine I have in my office at work.

That Brett Favre mug you see? I sort of defaced it after he “retired,” then went to the Jets. Then the Vikings. But defacing in my world usually involves sparkle. So, take that, Brett. Now you’re bedazzled.

Anyway, things have calmed down these days so I’ll get back to more regular updates. Also, feel free to send me anything you want bedazzled. I can handle it.
