When I write sex scenes, I'm constantly doing hand checks.
Close your eyes, and picture it.
Is it here? yes and his? And the left, right? Whoa, whoa, whoa, she's not that kind of girl. Or maybe she is but he's definitely not that kind of boy. And the other hand? No, not there, THERE.
You get the picture. It's quite mentally exhausting.

WHEW!
This year has been a busy one so far. Most of this "busy" stuff I'm talking about is self-imposed--I'm not happy if I'm not scrambling. I've decided I might have to cut back on sleep time again to get everything done.
Not that I sleep well. I don't.
If you recall, these are my 2012 goals.
So, up to speed....Here are my stats for 2012 so far:
1. Sewing: I am ahead in the Repro department and sewing is becoming like an addiction for me. DANGER!
2. Writing word count: 47,668 (and nowhere NEAR completion.) #2 is a fat fail so far, but I'm still plugging along, so that's okay, I guess.
3. Guitar. Eh.....stalled a bit on that one. I am not likely to learn a Dave Matthews song this year or maybe even next year. Damn that man and his damn spider finger chords!
4. Haven't gone anywhere yet so, I have nothing to report on number 4.
5. HA! Haven't even started this project....maybe this summer?
6. I feel like I'm heading the right direction with Quality of Friendship goal. It's been a painful process in some respects, but in the end I think I've done the right thing. More on that later.
This year has also turned into the Year of Music. The month of March kicks off a promising year of Concerts beginning with Gomez tomorrow night followed by Matt Nathanson on Sunday. I close out the month with 2 shows, The New Monarchs and Needtobreathe. This heavily music-ed month is followed by Social Distortion in April, James Morrison in May and Dave Matthews Band in July (YAY!).
My ear drums are going to be in heaven and agony all at once.
Not that I sleep well. I don't.
If you recall, these are my 2012 goals.
- Make 12 vintage reproduction dresses. I will post them here.
- Finish the rough draft of my novel by the end of February and 2nd draft by April. Polished draft by June.
- Learn to play guitar. I want to learn one Dave Matthews Song and one Civil Wars song. The rest is as we go.
- Create a Places I go 2012 Quilt (which will really be more of a 2013 project, though I have to collect the memories this year).
- Make my musical pillows (more on that later)
- Focus on Quality of friendship not Quantity. Grow the good friends and weed out the bad.
So, up to speed....Here are my stats for 2012 so far:
1. Sewing: I am ahead in the Repro department and sewing is becoming like an addiction for me. DANGER!
- 4 dresses
- 2 skirts
- 2 baby blankets
2. Writing word count: 47,668 (and nowhere NEAR completion.) #2 is a fat fail so far, but I'm still plugging along, so that's okay, I guess.
