Ten Tuesday Things

Ha! No, not ten. Although I have at least ten things I could draw from for a blog post since I last wrote. First LJ went down, down, DOWN. Almost utterly for me. A few times last week I checked in and saw others posting, others leaving comments even, but alas! It was not meant for me.

Then houseguests arrived here, chez Dot, and they often keep me from my beloved internets. But they are gone and here I am.

I did manage one writing/internet related thing while they were here. I’m sure some of you have read about the YA authors booksigning that was at Joseph-Beth here in Cincy on Sat. I managed to drop by it briefly and even though I took pics, my pics are lame. So here are some from Saundra Mitchell The best thing about this event for me was seeing sbennettwealer up there at the author table. We’ve gone to that store together for other writers’ signings and there was SARA! Woo!

What else should I talk about in this, my first August post? I don’t know! I feel kind of discombobulated. So how about a few pics? I took the kids to the art museum and Andy and I geeked out a bit with the angel statues:

See how carefully he is NOT blinking?

And have you heard of Graeter’s ice cream, aka the best store-bought ice cream in the world? Well, one of the reasons it is so awesome is the size of the chocolate chips. Check it out:

Do you see that one in the foreground? It’s a big as a candy bar!

Mmmm, ice cream sounds good today . . . *wanders off*
