There's a Penguin on the Telly: Lost in Translation
http://theresapenguinonthetelly.blogspot.com/2009/08/lost-in-translation.html
There's a Penguin on the Telly. Wednesday, August 26, 2009. Recently, I had reason to venture into our fine county courthouse, for the purpose of assisting my older son in paying a traffic ticket. He hadn't realized that the court would not accept starter checks and he had not yet received the "real" checks for his new bank account. I work right around the corner so I offered to write the payment from my checking account, he could write his check to me and all would be good. Right? Also on this fine day?

There's a Penguin on the Telly. Sunday, August 23, 2009. Great Literature Being in the Eye of the Beholder. My mom is still in the hospital, recovering from surgery. On my way to visit her this afternoon, I stopped at the local bookstore to pick up some magazines for her and maybe some short stories if I could find some she hadn't read yet. Had her husband and pre. Teens in tow, and was she righteously angry? Does NO ONE in this town read? She said, in the sort of smug tone you usually here from eighth-g...

There's a Penguin on the Telly: Can I Get a Witness?
http://theresapenguinonthetelly.blogspot.com/2009/08/can-i-get-witness.html
There's a Penguin on the Telly. Thursday, August 20, 2009. Can I Get a Witness? I'm driving home this evening on a fairly busy intermediate county road. Its one of the few roads that connects the eastern and western ends of the county directly, so it gets a respectable amount of traffic. I'm setting the scene here, see? And as we're traveling along, I see a person standing in the ditch up ahead. the state has really cut the budget for roadside mowing, so the weeds? He is having a pee. 2 Under 2 Who Knew.

There's a Penguin on the Telly: I wanna new drug
http://theresapenguinonthetelly.blogspot.com/2009/08/i-wanna-new-drug.html
There's a Penguin on the Telly. Wednesday, August 26, 2009. I wanna new drug. Items circulating through the brain matter this morning:. My rheumatologist is NOT on my happy list this morning, wtf, this hurts and I'm over it. I need a new blog. New name, maybe new location. Alas, brain is fogged in and can't think straight. I'm still going to hunt down the Universe and kick it in the balls six or seven times for L and J and G. I could TOTALLY play Columbia at the nearest midnight showing of Rocky Horror.

There's a Penguin on the Telly: July 2008
http://theresapenguinonthetelly.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
There's a Penguin on the Telly. Tuesday, July 8, 2008. In Which She Attempts to Channel her Inner Martha Stewart and Winds Up with Jerry Lewis. Since mom has been ill, I've been pitching in by cooking their dinners. It's no trouble, since I find it just as easy to cook for five as three and its especially important as we battle stage 3 cancer, that she keeps to a healthy diet. And therein lay my trouble. I think this also what's known as foreshadowing but what the hey. We're going with it. You know, some...

She trailed off, looking really, really pissed. She's ...

Thursday, October 22, 2009. Alphabetical List of Reviews by Title. I have a lot of reviews on here, and Blogger only lets me list them by date.

Ecclectic Belletrist: Maybe Baby
http://ecclecticbelletrist.blogspot.com/2009/02/maybe-baby.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2009. I received this book from a friend as a Christmas Gift, and it took me nearly a year just to get to it, I was so backlogged on books! The answer may surprise you. I also felt that Darlington too much effort describing the minute details of the actions of the characters, and that it distracted her from exploring the deeper motivations of her characters.
