Enjoying our family's vacation in San Diego, CA. We went to the zoo, the Balboa Museums, La Jolla, The Birch Aquarium, the Naval Base, Sea World, and the revamped San Diego downtown Gaslamp District. On our last day, gotta pack suitcases, send off the box of goodies and soveniers we collected to ourselves by UPS and see my sister (been a decade since I last saw her in person) for dinner and a last bit of shopping. Kids and husband got burned on legs and arms really bad at Seaworld and had to take a take off to recover. Somehow I managed not to get burned (?). Amazed me really. Was hoping the vacation would help restart my inspiration for writing and it did better than that. On this last day, I came up with a, so far nebulace idea, about my favorite characters in SWAT Kats and making up another world about cats and making it a series about one of them. It will be a science fiction type genre but will have a small erotic bent similar to a favorite writer of mine. I hope to flesh out the bare bones of it then let it grow over time into what I'm looking at for in a series that I'll publish. Hope I can pull it off, we'll see.

See you all soon when I return!

I'm not sure what tagging is all about but my daughter tagged me with this silly thing. I guess it's okay for a lark. If you're interested here it is. Her's had to do with her anime characters mine is with the SWAT Kats.

1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.

("That's it!" Feral snarls and smacks T-Bone who returns the favor.)

Razor: Hey cut it out. Uhm.....I don't really date.

Felina: Uncle, leave him alone. T-Bone if you didn't tease him so much about his sexual orientation.... What was the question again? Oh yeah! Maybe I should take you out and show you a good time. You look like you could use it Razor.

(Razor blushes while trying to separate his partner from the irate Commander)

Callie: T-Bone! Commander Feral! Knock it off. As to the question, Well it's kind of hard to choose so I think I won't say.


OKAY SO SOME OF THESE ARE REALLY LAME AND SOME DEAL WITH A SUBJECT SOME OBJECT TO. SO DO YOU OWN ALREADY. LOL!

Just got this from one of my other sites I'm a member of. I thought you should be alerted to it. I did read it and it is alarming. Congress is studying a possible law to quite literally steal everyone's art. The law would allow anyone to use your art for their own purposes. This is cause for alarm. The article explains the hows and whys.

[link]

Everyone in the US, all art you've ever made will soon no longer be yours.

The article is long but well worth reading for you artists out there.

The rules

1. Make 100 pictures, each picture having a theme from the list below. Each picture should have ONE and only ONE theme to it for it to count.
2. No time limit, so have fun!
3. a) The main picture should be drawn, but not limited to just that. For all fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and Photoshop to create the picture.
b) Pictures should be of your own artistic ability. You may not edit photos, or break any other rules set out in the DeviantArt etiquette policy. Your pictures can be anything from sketches and doodles to great master pieces. Just have fun with it.
4. The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for others to see that......
a) You are in the challenge
b) What you have completed
5. Make sure to update this list and check off what is done and make a link to the picture.
6. In the comments for your artwork, note if it is part of the list and what ONE theme it is.
