wombat's blog - subscribe Just a wanna be writer, as in, writing for a living and not just for hiding it in my files while I go earn a small paycheck at a so-so job.

It seems that lately the mister and I have been living not only in different sections of the house, but in different sections of our lives--and the bathroom has become the demarcation line of our differences in more ways than one.

He has his ...
Wanted to send a salute to an American hero, so posting a link....
Ok, so it's Friday night, and if you are here like I am, you might be dressed funny.

I have on lime green sweat pants, a green knit sweat top, socks and houseshoes with fur on them, and a blue jacket with pockets to hold my cigs for going in ...
"On November 11th, this page will be replaced by the new Yahoo! home page."

What if I like what I have?

I've been bounced around on the upgrades, and played with them, and usually come back to the link saying, "Make Yahoo your ho...
I just got a PM from a sweet lady here (MissMimi) and also 3 or 4 emails saying I had messages on the facebook wall----all wishing me a Happy Birthday.

Not that I don't appreciate it, but it's not my birthday!

What happened, yo...
On a previous post I was saying that I had the same feeling about words, but didn't come up with a good example.

Well, here's one!

Function.

I keep hearing the "Funk" part.

I am in a "funkshun."
We dream and dream

We wonder and scheme

We cry and cry

We try and try

But in the end

We must attend

To our fears

From all the years

That we live

PAPERBACKWRITER'S post just made me remember something silly that I wanted to throw out there...

Has anyone except me ever done something as silly as this, and tried to tune out the tv or radio to what you were hearing and pretend you couldn'...
I don't know why but it's bugging me that I said I would be working overtime and left a sort of "see you later" thing. The overtime got pushed back because they hired some temps, to save money, I guess. I'm hoping I get some of that extra cash before I...
If you read my last post, you'll know that we had a mishap with with changing over our tv subscriber. If not, that's ok.

Just wanted to add anyway that I came home from work today to find the mister installing an extention to the old Dish Ne...
Man, we can get into some messes around here.....

We've been in the middle of all sorts of things that are minor, but a headache. Things like getting the furnace cleaned and tank filled, yard work, digging a ditch and bracing up the carport ...
I just went back to my "flickr" account, which is sadly full of nothing but things I have posted here and there, such as stupid "wombie" photos, left-over flower gifts to people, "Grape-Koolaid" silliness (where is he?) and something I can't even figur...
You know what?

I try and I try to just be here and have fun, but I often end up feeling like it was work, in spite of my claims that it's just nice to be here and write what's on your mind.

I get paranoid. I get upset. I get lo...
Just realized I hadn't subscribed to mixed nuts after commenting on a post, then I went to look to see if "it took."

I saw that I had 184 subscribers.

And guess what?

184 people read wombat.

I'm almost p...
I was lying in bed reading my current book of choice (The Shimmer by David Morrelll) and came across a tid-bit of useful info:

If you are lost, you can look up at the sky (if the stars are out) and find the big dipper.
