Okay you guys, I love shoes just as much as any woman but sometimes I think we go too far. Here is one of those times.'

A young blonde was on vacation in the depths of Louisiana. She wanted a pair of genuine alligator shoes in the worst way, but was very reluctant to pay the high prices the local vendors were asking.

After becoming very frustrated with the "no haggle" attitude of one of the shopkeepers, the blonde shouted, "Maybe I'll just go out and catch my own alligator so I can get a pair of shoes at a reasonable price!"

The shopkeeper said, "By all means, be my guest. Maybe you'll luck out and catch yourself a big one!"

Determined, the blonde turned and headed for the swamps, set on catching herself an alligator. Later in the day, the shopkeeper is driving home, when he spots the young woman standing waist deep in the water, shotgun in hand. Just then, he sees a huge 9 foot alligator swimming quickly toward her.

She takes aim, kills the creature and with a great deal of effort hauls it on to the swamp bank. Lying nearby were several more of the dead creatures. The shopkeeper watches in amazement.

Just then the blonde flips the alligator on its back, and frustrated, shouts out, "Dang it, this one isn't wearing any shoes either!"

My horoscope says:

You're officially off duty now. And after everything you've been doing lately, even someone as hardworking and diligent as you are wouldn't be able to think of a single reason why you shouldn't be entitled to some serious, guilt-free time off. Now that you've actually been given a chance to sit back and relax, don't mess around. Do it up right. Get yourself a few movies, a pizza and some ice cream -- oh, and company. You'll probably want company.

Well, I suspect if the stars say it is okay to loaf and goof off, then ain't no one gonna argue here!!!! Happy a great Thursday, y'all!

So my good friend, Lauren Barnholdt, YA and middle grade author extraordinaire posted a fabulous blog updating all her stuff. I loved it and decided to steal the idea for my LJ.

MOVIES: I haven't actually been to the movies lately. Do not ask me why. My DH always wants to go to see the latest action flick, and I resist that, so maybe I have sent myself into a resistant strain of movie-sickness. I just do not wanna go.

DVDs:Now this is different territory. I belong to NETFLIX and get these little babies pretty darn regularly. I am tapping my foot waiting until the next Sex in the City set. Sigh. This week it is some action thing. The DH will be happy!


BOOKS:Just got a children's book in the mail for a radio show guest, and it is pretty cute. The artwork is really good and I am excited to meet the author, Susan Chodakiewitz. On the adult reading side, I am about to dive into Instinct based Medicine. Looks interesting...

TWITTER: Yes, I Twitter. Do you? http://www.twitter.com/mkimsmith If you are not tweeting, you are missing a lot of fun and interesting things.


BLOGS: I am about to turn over my blog to guest posters for the month of July so that I can go off on my virtual book tour. Http://writingspace.blogspot.com will become a very interesting place over the next month. You should visit me!

MANUSCRIPTS: Working hard on a new book (romance)- the final stages on the third Shannon Wallace book, and gearing up for edits on an anthology short story.

Hope your writing is going great! k

So. Have you heard the story about the kid who didn't get his diploma because he threw a kiss to his family? Bonnie Eagle High School in Maine decided that his action would mean he would get up on the stage and leave it empty-handed.

Say what?

This hacks me off in one respect. I mean, if a kid is just waving or blowing kisses to his folks, what's wrong with that? Don't they deserve a little recognition?

On the other hand, the kids in our town don't get the real diploma on the stage anyway, and so they wouldn't be losing out on anything. But as a parent who shelled out a bunch of money for a cap and gown and extras for him or her to attend this annual and very special event, I would be mega ticked off.

What do you think? Here is one person's take:
Kid loses diploma
