Whimper, of course. No email? Life is utterly desolate.
Hmmm. My email server went kaploooey last night. This morning blogger went kaput for hours. What's going on? Life sure seemed so meaningless without email and blogger, sob*. My joy, when I came home from work to find email was back, was pathetically exuberant.
Isn't it scary how we're now IVed to this thing called the Internet? (BTW, if you emailed me in the last few days, and I hadn't replied, the server probably ate it. Can you resend?)
Without this thing, how am I supposed to have an instant rant about how much I HATE that blonde woman on LOST, the one that's all subtle and smug and doing all the psychological warfare on our side? Huh? Huh?
And without this thing, I wouldn't be able to jump on Blogger to vent on how mad I am that McDreamy didn't give Meredith the choice after all by walking away. Gah. GAH! That's not noble! That's robbing ME of the satisfaction of seeing Meredith choose. GAH!
;-D
Are you as addicted as I am to the "information" highway? More like, the "electronic Black Hole."

I also need to write a new author bio for the back of my book, now that I'm with a new publisher. I'm no good at this; my first Avon editor did mine for me. Is there any one of you wonderful dudettes who can write a short sweet bio for Gennita Low? Pretty please? What, are you saying I'm NOT sweet?! ***shockedface*** Pretty please with an ARC on the top when I get one? That's WICKED SWEET, if you ask me! Heh.

oh cool a procrastination exercise! :)
Gennita Low is the well-deserved winner of the 2003 Romantic Times Best Romantic Intrigue Award. The Author of five previous novels, Ms. Low draws on her own intriguing background to write her captivating adventure sagas. Strong, spunky characters with wicked imaginations and quick, humorous dialogue charm readers as much as their world-traveling, high-speed dangerous romantic escapades keep them turning the pages. Fluent in Chinese, Malay, German, Russian and English, the multitalented author also co-owns a roofing company in central Florida where she resides with her beloved pack of mutant poms. For the latest update on her exciting stories, visit her website at www.gennita-low.com.
Thanks, that was fun :) feel free to chuck it. Off to find groceries! (or further efforts at procrastination)
Hi Kim,
Thanks! It reads much better than what I've written! I'm going copy it and tweak it.
If you're the only one writing a short bio for me, you win the ARC for Virtually His ;-), so send me your snailmail addy. I haven't received my galleys yet, but when I do, I'll be sending some out to reviewers, etc. I'll send one to you too!
Thanks for helping out!
Well done, Kim!
