I Can Live With That

You Had an Average Year


While you had some setbacks, your year also brought some good things.
All in all, things mostly evened out. That’s just how life works.
Focus on what went well for you – and what you can improve.
A new year is a perfect reason to give yourself a fresh start!

What Comes Next

I’m talking about what I’ve got in the pipelines for 2010 over at the Aphrodisia Authors blog today. Come visit!

P.S. Happy Birthday to my big brother! He’s 30 on December 30 this year. (Yes, we’re the same age for two days every year. We used to tell people we were twins on those days. My fave is when someone asked us quite seriously if we were identical twins. Um…he’s got brown hair and brown eyes, and I’m blond, pasty, and green eyed. Plus, he’s a boy. I’m not. So…no.)

Elfed!

You Are An Elf


You are highly creative and artistic. You are good at working hard.
While you love to work, you also love to play. You have a naughty side to you!

You love pulling pranks and teasing people. You always seem to be getting into some sort of trouble.
People can rely on you to be industrious and responsible… but you’re going to have fun while you’re getting stuff done.

Merry Christmas!

You Are Green


You are a peaceful, balanced, and together person. You are naturally calm.
However, you have your own inner demons that you struggle with from time to time… mainly greed and jealousy.

You are very reflective and creative. You are always thinking of and pursuing new ideas.
You believe that spiritual and personal growth is important. You are always trying to change for the better.

Signing Stock With Di Francis

So, the plan today is to pick up Diana Pharaoh Francis, fantasy and urban fantasy author extraordinaire, and drag her around to sign the books the have on stock in the Sacramento area bookstores. On Christmas Eve. Pray for us.

The good news is, we’re not buying anything, so we don’t have to stand in line. The bad news is: traffic and fighting for a parking space. The kind of attitude holiday shoppers have just might make me whip out my inner Valley Girl on their asses. She’s a scary side of Crystal. Me. Whatever.

Some of the fun goodness that might be signed? (I just love showing off the artwork pretties)

Happy holidays and safe travels to all of you headed somewhere for the festivities!
