same bat channel

I remember watching this as a kid, with Adam West as Batman. But who was that slinky cat woman? I think a couple of different women played her. Do you remember? It seems she wasn’t quite as bad as the joker or penguin, or riddler. Remember his outfit? Yikes! I liked Mr. Rogers, too - especially meow meow kitty - and Captain Kangaroo, and Romper Room. I kept waiting for the ‘teacher’ to look in her magic mirror and say, “And I see Donna and Cathy and oh look, there’s Marcy…” but she never did. Did you have a favorite show when you were little?


Meanwhile, a tiny bit bummed today. I sent a query off two days ago on Almost Paradise and got a practically instant rejection early this morning. Which means; I suck and she shot off the email to let me know as soon as possible, or, I don’t suck and she barely skimmed beyond the query (ie the synopsis and first two chapters as requested), or maybe I suck/maybe I don’t but for whatever reason she just couldn’t get excited about my story, or…ok you get the idea. Anyway, I guess it bothered me because the reply came so quickly, as if very little thought was involved. And while that may or may not be true that’s how it feels. Like a quick dismissive no thanks rather than a well thought out I-took-my-time-reading-this but no thank you.


C’est la guerre.

massively infected

that was the verdict on my computer which is now, happily, back on line and back in business. It could have been much worse. I did not lose any documents (thank the gods), or pics, or music (and really what else is there?). I did lose all my emails, including a number of npr songs of the day, a few of which I've found but most of which are, no doubt, lost forever - unless my cluttered brain can find and spit them out. But I'm back, and I have lots more to say.

But I think I'll save it for the morning and after coffee :)

sick little monkey

I'm afraid that's me. I've got some 'rot' as my dad used to say and am feeling quite poorly. Which makes it hard to access my creative energies seeing as how they're all blocked like my sinuses. But I promise I'll write something inspiring just as soon as I feel a little more like a human being rather than a mucus filled balloon. Ick!
