Or she will be by the time I get off work today. My mother was released from the hospital this afternoon. :)

It's difficult for me to sum up the feelings other than the ole roller-coaster metaphor. While tired, it is apt but doesn't quite cover what it's like to have your remaining parent in and out of the hospital and never quite knowing which time will be the last. There MUST be a special circle of hell just for that feeling. If I really believed in hell... Anyways, this passed week or so has sucked ass and that's the nicest way I can put it. Between my mother in the hospital, my husband spraining his ankle and my child determined to act three years old no matter how illogical I keep telling her that is; I believe some booze and/or long bubble baths are in order.

Which has left me with some sort of a quandary: How personal do I want to get with my writing blog? Granted, I won't be doing in depth reviews of *achem* "toys" I purchase or describing bodily functions in grizzly detail (only vague detail ~_^) , but if I wait to only talk about writing, it's kinda cold and lonely. I don't get many visitors here anyway and the ones that come, I'd like to keep.

So, I suppose it's time to get to know the Lenni. As House would say: Wear a cup.

The mythical "They" says I must blog every day to be a success. So, the Lenni has a couple questions: What kinds of things would you all like to read from me every day? Do YOU blog every day? Would endless complaints about how the blank pages mock me or how Open Office fucks up the formatting in my Word 2007 files? Do you want to hear a library rant every so often? Cause I got plenty of those. XD

Ya'll gotta let the Lenni know, people. I do enjoy the occasional personal question but I reserve the right not to answer. (Bwahaha!)

Anyways, on to writing type news. There are day to day activities that tend to inspire me to write different things. Weeding and collection development are two of those things. Looking for books on certain subjects usually exposes gaps in subject matters that I never would have thought to write about.

I tend towards fiction. You can fact check elements of fiction (yes, I have been fact checked) but on the whole the "make shit up" aspect tends to leave me free of reality's constraints. But every so often, I get a bug up my ass to write non-fiction. This time, it's particularly strong. Like, "I have half an outline in my head already," strong. Should I go for it? I mean really? I should post a tally of my current projects to make this question a bit meatier... XD

Anyways, it's out there and up for consideration. We shall just have to see what falls where. :)

Till later, babies!
