Snickers pictures

Captain's Log, Stardate 01.16.2009

Hey, I figure if other people can post pictures of babies and grandkids, I can post pictures of my dog, right?

This is Snickers with her favorite toy, her yellow ducky. Actually, its color is more of a "bright" slobber ecru.

Try to smile, don't look so sad, this really isn't that demeaning...

Let's try to distract her with food so she'll look perky. Oh wait, put the food near the camera, not in your hand...

Except now she looks sad and pathetic as she stares at the hot dog, waiting for it and wondering why we're torturing her.
"Are you stupid humans done YET???"

"While you try to figure out your camera, I'm going to sleep, which I could do better if you'd stop sticking this stupid duck under my head."

Awww she's so cute! I wish we could give our dog his own toy but he's liable to destroy it within a week. :D

Heck yeah!! We, who don't have kids, OWE it to our pets to post pictures!!!! LOL.

I just did one on my blog this week (Wednesday Post) it shows my dog lying on his back paws in the air sleeping outside on our patio furniture. It's hilarious.

Snickers is so cute. I wonder what our dogs think when we're hovering over them with a camera? **smile**

Hi Everyone Happy Friday! She is the sweetest, but pets rock. We don't have a dog we have 4 cats who are more like our kids. But we do have one child a son who is 3, and the Cats still aren't sure if they like him or not. But our son loves the cats and wants them to play with him. Pets are great and thanks for sharing yours with us.

LOL Thanks guys! We take waaaaaaaaaay too many pictures of our dog, but now I understand about friends who take tons of pictures of their kids.

I actually made a calendar with Vistaprint that has a picture of Snickers for every month of the year. It's old now, but I still keep it to have a rotating picture of Snickers on my desk.

These are great pictures! We take way too many pictures of our kids AND our dogs! tee hee! Our dogs also tear up all the soft toys we give them - it is their mission to tear out all the stuffing as soon as we get them!

Snickers is such a cutie! She looks so thrilled too. (not!) Our dogs have lots of slobber colored toys. Well, they don't even have toys just pieces of toys. Gee, where would we be without our furry buddies?

I love it when you have photos of Snickers. Just adorable. I think it shows what a sweet dog she is that has a favorite toy and hasn't mutilated it beyond belief.

The commentary is totally Camy! Just as funny as your books can be.

Brainstorm - character occupation

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.23.2009 Hey guys, I could use some help. In my current manuscript, The Year of the Dog , which is a humorous contemporary romance, I have a minor character, Eddie. He’s my heroine’s ex-boyfriend, and they’re on good terms with each other. He’s a bit irresponsible, but not so much so that he’s a complete loser. He’s got a very easy going attitude, he forgets to pay his bills sometimes, he’s friendly and charming. He’s adventurous and fun to be around, but he’s a little forgetful sometimes, and he tends to spend a little outside his income. I need an occupation for him. What would a charming, easy going, slightly irresponsible guy do for a living? He’s not too irresponsible, because otherwise readers will wonder what in the world my heroine saw in him to date him in the first place. She was attracted to his charm, his easy going attitude (her family’s uptight, and he was a nice contrast), and his adventurousness. But his forgetfulness and irresponsibility ...

Chinese Take-Out and Sushi for One

Captain’s Log, Supplemental My agent sent me an article from Publisher’s Weekly that discussed this incident: Chinese Take-Out Spawns Christian Controversy And here’s also a blog post that talks about it in more detail: The Fighting 44s This is Soong-Chan Rah’s blog: The PCS blog In sum: Apparently Zondervan (yes, my publisher), who has partnered with Youth Specialties, had put out a youth leaders skit that had stereotypical Asian dialogue, which offended many Christian Asian Americans. In response to the outcry, Zondervan/Youth Specialities put out a sincere apology and is not only freezing the remaining stock of the book, but also reprinting it and replacing the copies people have already bought. I am very proud of my publisher for how they have handled this situation. The skit writers have also issued a public apology . (I feel sorry for them, because they were only trying to write a funny skit, not stir up this maelstrom of internet controversy. I’ve been in youth work long enou...

Tabi socks, part deux

Captain's Log, Stardate 07.25.2008 (If you're on Ravelry, friend me! I'm camytang.) I made tabi socks again! (At the bottom of the pattern is the calculation for the toe split if you're not using the same weight yarn that I did for this pattern (fingering). I also give an example from when I used worsted weight yarn with this pattern.) I used Opal yarn, Petticoat colorway. It’s a finer yarn than my last pair of tabi socks, so I altered the pattern a bit. Okay, so here’s my first foray into giving a knitting pattern. Camy’s top-down Tabi Socks I’m assuming you already know the basics of knitting socks. If you’re a beginner, here are some great tutorials: Socks 101 How to Knit Socks The Sock Knitter’s Companion A video of turning the heel Sock Knitting Tips Yarn: I have used both fingering weight and worsted weight yarn with this pattern. You just change the number of cast on stitches according to your gauge and the circumference of your ankle. Th...

I GOT A CONTRACT!

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.29.2006 I had a wonderfully funny blog post planned for today, but I got sidetracked by some news yesterday! Zondervan has offered me a three-book contract on my Asian chick-lit series ! I’m still stunned by everything that’s happened. The series is actually a 4-book projected Asian chick-lit series about four cousins who fall under the infamous family title "Oldest Single Female Cousin," and their ruthless, wealthy grandma applies pressure on each of them to improve their lack of love interests. I think the first book is tentatively scheduled to be released in August 2007. The blurb on the series is on my website here . Brandilyn Collins posted to the ACFW loop about my writing journey, and Tamara Cooper asked that I share it. And since you all know how much I like to talk , here it is. My writing journey: Like most writers, I have wanted to write since I was very young. (In high school, I wrote a fantasy novel that will never see the light of day ...
