I want to have your babies.
That is all.

Wasn’t it Elizabeth Taylor who said in regards to her vast love life that the best part about falling in love was the falling part?
She should’ve been a romance author.
I think I’m going to sound like a complete lunatic but I don’t care. I gotta throw it out there.
Sometimes I create a particular hero in my own little mind that I end up falling madly in love with. Yes, a fictional character who doesn’t exist anywhere but in my head (and eventually in the book which hopefully will sell and then readers get to fall in love with him too).
This happened with Austin from Forbidden. Oh, how I fell in looove with hiiim. I wrote his story in two weeks. It was as if he whispered in my ear the entire time I was writing and it was pure bliss. I haven’t felt that high and in love with a hero since.
(I want to say that I always give my all with every story and I don’t think my falling in love with the occasional hero means that all the rest of my heroes suck. Definitely not. I love all the characters I’ve written. But yeah, when I do fall madly in love with the hero? The story does benefit. I cannot tell a lie)
It’s finally happened again and I’m there. I am In. Mad. Love. with my current hero. And he only came to me hmmm…last Friday? Thursday maybe? I don’t know but he’s pushing me hard to keep writing and it’s this super seekrit project that I haven’t told anyone about except my agent (oh yeah and my husband). I wrote the first three chapters in three days. I sent them to my agent Tuesday and she already read them and with a few suggested tweaks, she said she likes them and wants me to continue. Wheeee…
But I digress.
I don’t quite get why the occasional hero will really get to me. It just…happens and oh man, when it does, I feel positively giddy. I act like a fool in love. I fall asleep thinking about them (him). I wake up thinking about them (him). I sometimes even dream about them. It’s rather obsessive but when I am in that frame of mind, when they are consuming me I go with it. The words pour out and I’m so wrapped up I have a hard time breaking out of it.
It helps when you have visual assistance.
Meet my new boyfriend Henry Cavill. Good LORD he is gorgeous. And this isn’t even the picture that sends me over the edge. I’m holding on to that one like I don’t want to share it or something. Not that this picture is bad…seriously he doesn’t take a bad picture. And his voice. Dreamy…
I’m warning you now be prepared for more Henry photos because he is just too delicious to be ignored. And he’s so young! God, I feel like such a cougar and I hate that term with a burning hot passion.
Okay I gotta go. A certain hero is calling my name asking me to write his story. And I’m more than happy to oblige…

Why have I never heard of this before? We used to have a Krispy Kreme but they grew too big for their britches and expanded too fast and then our local store closed. Which makes me sad because the occasional Krispy Kreme doughnut is good for the soul.
So instead of eating a doughnut I will be dreaming of them like my friend Homer. Mmm…doughtnuts…*drool*
Happy Friday!

I’m visiting him today. Now, I am one of those people with a (slight – okay more than slight but not major) fear of the dentist. I think it all started when I was about eight and my dentist gave me a shot before giving me a filling. Well, he hit a nerve and I swear my mouth was numb for hours and hours. He even knew he hit a nerve or some such crap because he said something about it to the assistant, like laughing about it. Jerk.
Then years later my orthodontist noticed I had a loose tooth. He proceeded to reach into my mouth and yank it out – and it wasn’t necessarily in yankable condition yet. That hurt like a mother. Crazy old man (he was the top dog orthodontist in town too – I’d see practically my entire junior high class in there when I went for an appointment).
Anywho, my current dentist is nice and kind and I like everyone that works there. They don’t make me feel guilty if I don’t go every six months (well except Helen the receptionist kinda does – she’s like that grandma that speaks in the low, sweet voice and gives you grief and you don’t even realize it until you hang up the phone or walk away from her).
But he does make me feel guilty if I don’t floss. So take THAT Doctor Dentist! I have been flossing like a crazy woman for the last six months! HA! No more flossing guilt trips!
If he says anything about my lack of flossing I’m gonna flip. Just FYI.
What are you up to this fine Wednesday?

I know I shouldn’t complain. We need as much rain as we can get here in the Golden State but my goodness, I’m tired of it. And this latest storm – so cold! The chickens are sitting on my back porch as I type, taking a nap! They don’t want to be out in the cold and wet. I don’t blame them.
I live on a dirt road so the dirt has turned to mud. Really slippery mud. On Monday it was 80 degrees – yesterday at 3 p.m. it was 46. What gives? I think it’s time to move on, Mr. Rainy Pants.
Check back with me about mid-July, when I’m complaining about the heat and feeling desperate for relief. Visit me again at the beginning of September when I wonder how soon Fall will get here and lament over the endless string of 90+ degree days.
Yes, I am fickle. Yes, I guess I’m never happy. Please forgive my moods.
Love,
K

And I guess when I’m feeling anxious, I start baking – I am making these as I blog. This is not a good thing because then I start eating more and well, damn it, it all goes to my butt. Sigh…
But at least it takes my mind off my anxiety. Good lord let’s hope I hear word soon! Please please please!
Ahem. Excuse my little fit. I feel better now. (Not really – just humor me)
Off to go frost the lemon blossoms…
psst – Save me!
