Guess I'll drag myself to the dive bar later for a couple of hours. I think that's about all I can manage!

And a successful schvimminks was had by all. Now it's household tasks and afterward, working with @teddytedaloo.bsky.social on his next book!

Looks like #divebarsaturday is happening. Got the Canuck contingent coming and possibly a local. Time to dust off my dancing shoes.

I had a visit from the TV ghost again. I just don't know anymore...

Have to take @teddytedaloo.bsky.social for his birthday pints this week or I'll never hear the end of it.

Finding the latest season of "Industry" seriously overblown, and the characters more irritating and unbelievable than they were previously. It keeps reminding me of another series that went down a similar road.

Three quarters of the way through reading "Careless People" - let's just say that the gods of FB are even worse and more dangerous than you think.

Definitely worthy of those BAFTAs. www.imdb.com/title/tt1069...

Sad news. I really liked his work. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Cancelled #divebarfriday. Just learned it's an acoustic night. So no dancing.

I think I might throw caution to the wind and do a #divebarfriday.

Does anyone know why AMZN keeps changing URLs for book listings? It makes it very annoying and problematic when your website has these handy links, then later said links are broken because they were changed!

Taking a break from the dive bar again this weekend. But next Sunday I expect to be back on track, with a grunge midweek planned right after!

Wahay! I just got eight bucks from the Yahoo data breach settlement. Am I living it large or wot?

Interesting... www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Got in a lovely and quiet Sunday morning schvimminks!

Thrilled to finally be making headway with @teddytedaloo.bsky.social on the next book in our #cosycrime mystery series "The Thelonious T. Bear Chronicles" featuring ursine protagonist Thelonious T. Bear! If you missed the first two #books, you can rectify that now! mitziszereto.com/the-thelonio...

It astonishes me that even with the miniscule amount of mail I receive thanks to using paperless options, the postal service still manages to lose my mail. Three times so far this year???

I can't believe I wasted an hour and a half of my life watching the new Jack Ryan film. Talk about overblown nonsense...

And a successful morning schvimminks was had by all! It also included getting some kisses from the neighbour doggy who was driving past in her Jeep and dropping off some carrots for another neighbour doggy. 😍

A most eventful evening beach walk - met a four-legged charmer named Joey who fell madly in ❤️with me (even his mum couldn't believe it), then went past the dive bar where some old codgers were performing "Rocket Man," a song from another old codger! 🤣

I now seem to be stuck in a loop of disrupted sleep by waking up every couple of hours, then finally having to give up. Hoping this goes away after I take care of some upcoming stuff that is likely giving me anxiety.

I feel so loved! I got my first scammer email from a fraudster impersonating the publisher at Pushkin Press!

I'm one of these authors whose works (fifteen in total) were never registered by the publisher (two publishers, in fact). Doubt I'll see a penny from the tens of thousands of dollars I should be paid in the settlement. authorsguild.org/news/court-h...

Popping the allergy tablets. I swear they also do something to the water here in springtime, as it's playing havoc with my skin.

Got in my first schvimminks of the summer season!

All well and good, but what about those of us whose work has been pirated by these thieves? As usual, we won't see a penny. legalnewsfeed.com/2026/05/20/n...

Yup.

This riveting documentary series is a real mind f**k. Be prepared to do a lot of yelling at the people on the TV. www.hulu.com/series/the-c...

Happy Fête de la Reine!

I was home minding my own business when, 20 minutes later, I ended up at a private gathering with the Motown band!

Finally managed to hit Macy's after a year and once again I did well. Of course it was pouring down rain all day when I had a bunch of business to take care of. Now that I'm home, the sun came out lol.
