My dear dog, Sugar Cookie

The Virgin Queen

M.K. Hobson — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 19:42:05 +0000

Well, apparently my dog is Queen Elizabeth or perhaps just Bette Davis but in any case, she wanted nothing to do with the stud dog we picked out for her. They had a lot of fun running around and playing together, and the stud dog was more than interested but … well … let’s [...]

My Super-Exciting Life

M.K. Hobson — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 15:09:29 +0000

This has been a funny week … looking back on it, it doesn’t seem like there’s been much going on, but it’s been quite busy. I think I’ve had a hard time keeping up because I’ve been operating at a diminished capacity–this verdammte chest cold has been dogging me, and my back has gotten [...]

Merry Christmas!

M.K. Hobson — Sat, 25 Dec 2010 21:23:47 +0000

What a nice Christmas it’s been so far, other than the staying up until 3:30 and then getting up at 5 a.m. part. But that pretty much comes with the territory on Christmas, and we had all the gifts open by 6:30, so hubby and I were able to go back to sleep while [...]

Dog tired

M.K. Hobson — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 16:49:46 +0000

Well, we’re back from the beach and we’re all sunburned and windburned and exhausted. The dog especially. The minute we got home she flopped down on her bed and hasn’t left it since. She does groan occasionally, and look over at me balefully. Poor pup. She was on fast-forward the whole weekend, swimming in [...]

I saw a wild beehive today!

M.K. Hobson — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 23:59:03 +0000

Today was a somewhat adventuresome day, at least as “adventuresome” as it gets for me and the dog. For today’s walk, I originally thought to take her to Mary S. Young, but then I realized we’re clean out of balls (they’ve all gotten lost or chewed to bits.) I remembered a gentleman I met [...]

Where has the glamour gone?

M.K. Hobson — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 16:03:21 +0000

So I know that all I’ve been doing lately is posting about book stuff, and while I’m sure you all understand I feel like an apology is in order. I know what you all really tune in for are the tales in which I describe the unrelenting glamour of my life. At the moment, [...]

Silent Spring

M.K. Hobson — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 16:15:43 +0000

OK, I admit it … my blog has been very quiet lately.

It’s not for lack of stuff to post about … my daughter left for Outdoor School this morning, I need to write a review of THE LAST WITCHFINDER by James Morrow (which was utterly fantastic; Morrow is one of my new favorite [...]

Orange balls, life lessons

M.K. Hobson — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:30:01 +0000

As you know if you’ve read this blog for any amount of time, these stupid expensive Chuck-it balls have gotten me into a lot of trouble. I lose them, get pissed off about losing them, but still I go out and buy more because the dog likes them a lot. However, today, as I [...]

A Cascading Fail of Suck

M.K. Hobson — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 18:58:06 +0000

You know how it is that sometimes, you make one bad decision, which leads you into a circumstance where you make a worse decision, and then you make an even worse decision and by the time you come to your senses you’re standing there thinking, “how on earth did I end up in the [...]
