The Neurosis of Man 2008-08-21 14:47:48
OR: Oh my God, give my husband a xanax. Seriously.
Okay, we have another sick kitty. This one has been with hubby dear for 15 years. He’s a very sweet old man with one gray whisker which has earned him the moniker, Grey Whisker Man. I’m original, I know.
Anyway, the sweetie started drooling a lot and hiding, so off to the vet we went. Vets have a knack for giving you the shit before it hits the fan and I always seem to notice that it’s never sugar coated. Sweet Toby had six oral ulcers which could have been caused by:
a) Kidney failure - Yikes!
b) Oral Viral Infection - I could deal with that.
c) Bad oral hygeine - What YOU brush your cat’s teeth?
They took blood, handed us a tube of oral gel and sent us on our way. Of course, hubby is freaking out because Toby isn’t eating and every time I turn around I hear, "But he’s gonna die!"
My response: He’s not gonna die, he just needs to
Cat Writing & A New Me! 2008-08-13 07:42:09
I wrote 4k last night. Two chapters on Toys for Trish (only two more to go!). I wrote it all with a cat on my shoulder. Jazzy has settled into our little home verra nicely and finds that Momz on the computer time is also Jazzy time. She crawls all over me until she settles on some random place, and promptly falls asleep. What staggers me is the trust this little ball of fur has handed me. She falls asleep, head on my shoulder, ass on my arm, and expects me to keep her stupid butt from falling to the groud as she goes boneless. Of course, I do.
And….
A new me! Okay, not really new, but a healthier me.
A recent turn of events with my mother’s health has forced me to take a good long look at myself and I’ve realized that while I’m happy with the way I look, I’m not at all healthy. With Hypoglycemia, Borderline high blood pressure and borderline high cholesterol, I seriously need to make some cha

When Jazzy Attacks! 2008-08-06 11:09:27
Against The Mom’s better judgement… I gots me a new kitty. Her name is Jasmine, Jazzy-cat or Jazzy McJazz Hands. She’s a tiny, sleek furball with the softest fur and the sweetest kisses you ever did receive. She loves cuddling on my shoulder as I write at night and curls up on the bed between my and Mr. Kyle’s pillows each night. I lurv her. My other fem kitty, Katie O’Meghan, does not. At. All. But the vet assures us she’ll get over it soon enough.
Here’s the newest addition to the Kyle household….
She’s a little cranky after she arrived at her new home.
Now she’s a happy kitty!
RIP Cali, 1/00-7/08 2008-07-25 06:38:25
Life in the Kyle household has come to a screeching, crying, sobbing stop. My Cali, my companion from kittendom until the moment we took him to the vet, was put down on Wednesday. Months after meeting, becoming engaged to and moving in with my now hubby, I adopted Cali and he immediately became by best friend. At the time, hubby was working 70 hours a week (at minimum) which left me home with his cat that hated me and peed on my clothes. So, I adopted Cali from Petsmart, went through a comedy of errors upon finding out that Cali was actually a boy, not a girl and fell in love with the, eventually, fat ball of fur. He loved unconditionally, was always happy to see me and slept with me each and every night.
Now, my days are empty without his presence and my nights are difficult without his weight nestled between my knees.
To my Cali, my Cali-cat, my Fat Man…. Momma loves you and is devastated by your absence. May you be free

Fiery Ember is available now!!!! Woot!!!! Here’s the 411 on story that may remind you of Cinderella. If Cinderella had been written about losing a thong instead of a shoe.
Ember Ellason is a darned good secretary. True, she’d like to be more, but since her father’s passing, her step-mother has taken over as CEO of Ellason Advertising, and Clementine Ellason feels Ember is only good enough to fetch coffee… barely. But when Clementine and her horrid daughters fail to show up for the meeting with the biggest client they could ever land, Ember saves the day by impersonating her step-mother.
Paul Ashe needs a new ad campaign and he’s found the perfect company with the perfect proposal in Ellason Advertising. Too bad his body is a

Ian fell into bed the moment he emerged from the bathroom. Water still clung to his skin, but he didn’t care. Damn, the night seemed to have gone on forever.
Woman after woman flashed him their cleavage while more than one man eyed him below the waist. Damn it all. Didn’t they know he was as good as mated to Chris?
Fuck no, they didn’t. Because he and Chris hadn’t actually mated. Sure they’d sucked and humped, but no fucking had o

I have a confession… 2008-07-13 18:58:07
I cannot high five. *sigh* It’s true. I’ve tried. Hubby’s tried. Everyone has tried to teach me, but you can’t teach a person coordination. So now, I stand still, hold my hand in the air, and wait for hubby to do the rest. Cause god knows I can’t hit the man with any sort of force without missing his hand entirely.
Heck, I can’t even do a fist bump.
Maybe that’s why I’m so big on hugs. You can’t really miss when both arms are involved, right?

Were What? by Celia Kyle
Lyla’s on the run from her pack’s omega. Since he’s at the bottom of the totem pole in her pack, this should be simple, right? Tell that to her aching lungs and jiggling thighs. She’s never been one to go with the flow. So when her alpha orders her to submit to mating with the omega she’s not about to start now. Good thing she runs into (literally) a big hunk of man who can make the scariest of wolves tuck tail and run.
Michael’s had enough of weres to last a lifetime. After being caught in the middle of a territory war while in Brazil between the Pumas and Jaguars, he sure as hell doesn’t want anything to do with the trouble following Lyla. But apparently no one told that to his cock.

Fiery Ember
Ember Ellason is a darned good secretary. True, she’d like to be more, but her step-mother runs Ellason Advertising now that her father has passed and Claudette, her step-mother, feels Ember is only good enough to fetch coffee… barely. Not content with her life as a secretary, she takes night classes to get her degree in marketing. Good thing, too. Because when Claudette, nor her horrid daughters, show up for the meeting with the biggest client they could ever land, Ember steps in to save the day. Sort of. Clementine and Ember sound alike&hellip

Growl
By Celia Kyle
The growl woke her. Deep, guttural, hungry and low, it crept through the room and reverberated through her bones.
It’d gotten him.
Somehow through the night, the disease seeped through the cracks in the walls and took hold of her beloved.
The now familiar sound of the slow scraping of feet against the concrete floor filled the once silent room. She pressed her back against the wall, thankful for the solid support as she clutched the blood-stained handle of her hatchet. She took solace in its solid, balanced weight and razor sharp edge. It hadn’t failed her yet.
The scraping grew closer.
Her heart beat double-time, threatening to burst from her chest as she waited. Rushing forward too soon could prove to be disastrous. She’d seen it happen to one too many of her friends. She’d watched
Adventures in Stupidland: NKOTB 2008-05-19 12:23:34 Once in a lifetime thing going on here folks. Yup, this installment of AiS is not about Me, but about NKOTB.
I’m about to date myself, but when New Kids on the Block came out, I was very nearly their number one fan. I would have been their number one fan had my mother found the NKOTB fabric at Wal-Mart and made me the curtains I asked for, but whatever.
So, NKOTB has decided to try and make a comeback. Um, who told them this was a good idea? I mean, seriously? Dudes, you’re old. I mean, I’m old so I know you sure as hell are. Leave the teeny boppin’ to the teeny boppers and move on. You no longer have the pre-adolescent high pitched voices you once had and instead of looking cool as you pop and lock on the stage, you look like my dad trying to bust the robot. N.O.
Don’t believe me? Think it can’t be that bad? Let me assure you… it is.

Poking it with a stick 2008-05-13 05:41:25 I discovered a new social networking site, quite by accident, when perusing a couple of sex blogs. (Yes, blogs about sex. *gasp*) Anyway, I looked at the front page, cocked my head to the side and squinted my eyes at it, then straightened, brow furrowed and continued to stare. Huh. They have a social networking site. Very cool, my mind said. Very cool, indeed. I snagged the link and ran off to share with my author friends…
Now, we are all poking it with a stick as we decide who will be the first to jump into fetlife. (www.fetlife.com) I know that there are several blogs I read whose masters/mistresses hop on over there so I’m curious if they read my blog and want to comment on the site. Wendy? Avah? Jefferson? (though he is in the middle of moving)
So, I guess until we hear from an actual member that the bdsm authors won’t get flogged for having book writing as a fetish, we’ll all continue poking the site with our imaginary sticks.
