			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What a week! Life in the d&#8217;Abo household has been clipping along at a good pace. We are in the process of selling our house, which means LOTS of cleaning and decluttering. The minions aren&#8217;t very happy about the extra work, but they will survive.</p>
<p>I do have some excellent news about a new contract coming up, but I can&#8217;t quite share it with you yet. I hope everything will be finalized next week and I&#8217;ll be able to give you the deets. Needless to say, I&#8217;m ecstatic. <img src='http://christinedabo.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be participating at the Toronto Romance Writer&#8217;s March critique session again this year. I hope I&#8217;ll be able to offer a bit of advice to the new writers in my group. Thankfully J.K. Coi is my critique partner, so they will benefit from her expertise as well.</p>
<p>Seeing as it&#8217;s Friday, I thought I&#8217;d share another funny video with you. This one isn&#8217;t safe for little ears or work (unless you have headphones). I laughed my ass off!</p>
<p>Happy Friday everyone!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TGIF people!!</p>
<p>What a crazy week it has been for me. Lots going on in the non-writing world, making it hard for me to get much movement on my manuscript for No Master. It&#8217;s coming, though. Promise!</p>
<p>But enough of that. It&#8217;s Friday and we need some giggles!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://terribleminds.com/ramble/2011/01/20/no-seriously-im-not-fucking-around-you-really-dont-want-to-be-a-writer/" target="_blank">You Really Don&#8217;t Want To Be A Writer</a></p>
<p>This link was sent to me by the fantastically amazing JK Coi. And while it is clearly meant to be funny&#8230;yeah, there&#8217;s some truth in there too.</p>
<p>Devils and Angels</p>
<p>This video came curtsy of my sister. The host&#8230;I couldn&#8217;t stop laughing.</p>
<p>And a joke! Also from my sister (I loves her bunches)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> A Loving Wife</strong></p>
<p>A man breaks into a house to look for money and guns. Inside, he finds a couple in bed. He orders the guy out of the bed and ties him to a chair. While tying the home owner&#8217;s wife to the bed the convict gets on top of her, kisses her neck, then gets up &amp; goes into the bathroom.</p>
<p>While he&#8217;s in there, the husband whispers over to his wife:<br />
&#8216;Listen, this guy is an escaped convict. Look at his clothes! He&#8217;s probably spent a lot of time in jail And hasn&#8217;t seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck. If he wants sex, Don&#8217;t resist, don&#8217;t complain&#8230;do whatever he tells you. Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is obviously very dangerous.<br />
If he gets angry, he&#8217;ll kill us both. Be strong, honey. I love you!&#8217;</p>
<p>His wife responds: &#8216;He wasn&#8217;t kissing my neck. He was whispering in my ear. He told me that he&#8217;s gay, he thinks you&#8217;re cute, and asked if we had any Vaseline. I told him it was in the bathroom. Be strong honey. I love you too.&#8217;</p>
<p>Have a safe and happy weekend everyone!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know, I like to think I can be amusing at time. Yes, yes, that typically means I&#8217;m not. Let me live in my bubble. <img src='http://christinedabo.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>However, during one of my sessions at Romanicon I was describing how I typically work out my plots and said something along the lines of, &#8220;&#8230;and then they have sex.&#8221; This created a bit of a giggle in the crowd and became a bit of a running joke for the rest of the weekend.</p>
<p>On the last day (I think, it&#8217;s all a blur) I said I wanted to get t-shirts made up with the saying on it. What a lark!</p>
<p>Well, I did.</p>
<p>If you happen to want one, <a href="http://www.cafepress.ca/christinedabo" target="_blank">I&#8217;ve created a Cafe Press store with the shirt</a>. They are simply (honestly, I&#8217;m not expecting anyone to want them), but I can do better if there is any interest.</p>
<p>So there. I&#8217;ve done what I said I would. And that is that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My very good (and slightly insane) friend <a href="http://www.amyruttan.com" target="_blank">Amy Ruttan</a>, asked me to participate over at the <a href="http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/board/forumdisplay.php?f=1214&amp;order=desc" target="_blank">June Ellora&#8217;s Cave spotlight</a> at Coffee Time Romance.</p>
<p>Of course I said yes!</p>
<p>If you are a fan of EC and all her authors, then you need to come over and check out the fun. There are so many people participating, you can&#8217;t even shake a stick at them!</p>
<p>Amy has posted excerpts from participating authors, and each of us has our own section where we will be posting more excerpts and chatting. In addition, I&#8217;ll be giving away a few free books to some lucky commenters. <a href="http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/board/showthread.php?t=13254" target="_blank">Come over and check out my thread</a>.</p>
<p>Make sure to visit the other authors too and help spread the word.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What a day&#8230;and it&#8217;s only 6:30 am so far! I can&#8217;t believe it, but today is my youngest daughter&#8217;s eighth birthday. Of course, she was so excited she got up at 6:15 am and came down to see me. Right now hubby is making her a special breakfast. This afternoon we are taking her and seven other kids to a children&#8217;s game/party centre. It&#8217;s kind of like Chuck E Cheese, but not commercial&#8230;and really big indoor slides. I can&#8217;t wait!</p>
<p>As most of you know, tomorrow is Father&#8217;s day. That means it will be my turn to make breakfast and treat the man. We are going to a BBQ with some friends, which will be a riot. Hubby deserves to be pampered, so I&#8217;ll probably go get him a nice steak. <img src='http://christinedabo.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Monday is out wedding anniversary. We&#8217;ve been together for twenty years, but have been married for thirteen. We met when I was fourteen, got engaged when I was eighteen and married at twenty-one. Been an awesome time ever since.</p>
<p>Speaking of wedding invitations&#8230;over at Twitter, a posting came up for <a href="http://www.awesomeopolis.com/2009/06/18/greatest-wedding-invitation-ever/" target="_blank">the most awesome wedding invitation</a> ever!!! You have to check this out hehehe.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be around here and there over the next few days, but not very much. I hope you all have a fantastic few days.</p>
