Nyquil and Christmas Lists

Sniffle, Sniffle
I’m sick today. Just with generic sore throat, sniffle crud, and overall being miserable. I've gotten nothing accomplished, trying to sleep and accumulating a pile of Kleenex balls on the end table near my couch. Eeew... You’ll have to forgive me for a sloppy post: I’m on serious drugs.

But I did knock out my Christmas wish list, so Sheri: you’ve been asking and it’s here. Yay! Please don’t feel the need to clear the sucker out all on your own; if my Christmas is solely comprised of the new Batman on BluRay, I’ll be ecstatic. :)

No more Ads :)
I’ve also permanently ditched Google Adsense from this blog that earned me a whopping $13 in two years. Not even enough to receive a first check. I’m replacing it with just Paypal. That way, if I get a generous-feeling reader every now and then browsing Blogger, at least I can get myself a cup of coffee at Starbucks. No minimum payout there.

Mmmm. I love coffee.

New Series Coming Thursdays on Thia Loves the Summer
I'm tired of whining about how much I miss writing. So, I'm jumping back on the horse. Here's my plan: I’m tabulating a small collection of stories I’ve written over the past 18 months or so. As an experiment, I’m going to post them here kind of like a regular series, called: Unnatural Tales, I think.

I’ve picked Thursdays as a regular posting time. I’ll do this for eight weeks and we’ll see how popular it is with ya’ll. If you like it: I’ll keep it up. If not, I’ll likely scrap it in lieu of a Sci Fi soap opera idea I’ve been tossing around for a few weeks.

I’m pretty excited about picking up writing again. I hope I’m not over-committing the amount of time I’ll need to dedicate to do it well. I’m pretty soaked up with work and studying these days.

Anyway, look for a first installment tomorrow night.

Zero progress today on MS certification exam studying today. Ugh, I hate being sick. I'm going back to bed. See you guys tomorrow.

Love ya,
-T.

Thia-
I am doing very well. I am super busy as usual. I still work (and commute to work) and Tastefully Simple has really kicked off and is keeping me super busy. I have been keeping up with your blog - I love Google Reader! I hope things work out with the crazy person who stole your pics! And I am sorry you aren't feeling well. I was in that state a few weeks ago with the horrible cold and a HORRIBLE sinus headache to go with it.

Keep in touch. I am looking forward to future posts!

FORMER Jayhawk??? No, no, no - once a Jayhawk, always a Jayhawk no matter where you live! :)

m-i-l is right. Not former. Current. We've given KU enough money at this point that I say we've earned the title for life.
