Hubby challenge

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.04.2009

I got tagged by my good friend, inspirational thriller author Ronie Kendig!

Here's a chance to see how well you really know your husband. The real challenge is to send it to your husband to see how right you really are.

1. He's sitting in front of the TV, what is on the screen? Sports Center

2. You're out to eat; what kind of dressing does he get on his salad? Italian

3. What's one food he doesn't like? Mayonnaise and/or mustard

4. You go out to eat and have a drink. What does he get? Water or Dr. Pepper

5. Where did he go to high school? Arizona

6. What size shoe does he wear? 11? (Urg—he’s a size 10, I went to the garage to check the shoe shelf)

7. If he was to collect anything, what would it be? keychains

8. What is his favorite type of sandwich? Philly Cheesesteak with those sweet/hot peppers

9. What would this person eat every day if he could? Rib eye steak

10. What is his favorite cereal? Bran Buds. It’s not really his favorite cereal, but he does eat it everyday to, um ... keep him regular.

11. What would he never wear? Pink (stole this one from Ronie)

12. What is his favorite sports team? Arizona Cardinals and Suns

14. Who is his best friend? Me? Well, he hangs out with me the most, anyway. I don’t think he’s really bestest friends with anyone. Maybe Byron.

15. What is something you do that he wishes you wouldn't do? Get water behind the sink spout. When I was living in Hawaii, that annoyed my dad, too.

16. What is his heritage? 3rd generation Chinese American

17. You bake him a cake for his birthday; what kind of cake? I don’t bake, but if I did, it would be Death By Chocolate with Chocolate Decadence frosting and Chocolate Chocolate Chip ice cream.

18. Did he play sports in high school? Basketball

19. What could he spend hours doing? Surfing the Internet

20. What is one unique talent he has? He puts up with me!

This is too cool! Can I swipe it?

And I have to concur with Captain Caffeine... the whole water behind the sink spout thing drives me nuts! Well, not the actual act of getting the water there, it's when my kids leave it there that makes me looney. My kids don't really care though lol.

I think I'm gonna have to get in on this. But I must warn y'all, I've been married to the guy for 25yrs, and I know him better than he knows himself by now.:-D

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 ...

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...

Japanese language learning process in more detail

I blogged a few weeks ago that I’ve jumped back into my Japanese language learning after being lazy and letting it slide. I’ve been keeping my Japanese language study habit for about a month now, and I wanted to blog about my process in more detail. One thing I had noticed about my Japanese is that I tended not to do it if I left it to do at the end of the day. I realized that it was just like my exercise—if I didn’t do it first thing in the morning, it never got done. So I started doing my Japanese right after my exercise in the morning. I treated it like one of my “frogs,” as I read about in the book Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time . The book is based off of a Mark Twain quote: “Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.” It suggests doing your “frogs”—your important things that you’re likely to procrastinate doing—first thing in the morning in order to get it done, and ...

Window shopping

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.14.2005 Knee update: I went to the doctor today for a checkup, and saw his assistant. I’ve been concerned because there’s still inflammation in my knee joint, and it’s been almost 4 months since the surgery. She said she’d talk to the doctor about it tomorrow and call me. Sometimes he suggests laying off the PT to see if that causes the inflammation to go away, but I don’t know if that will work because lately I’ve been pretty active outside of PT. At PT today, the therapist did ultrasound and some sort of electrical current on the joint. Hopefully that will make the inflammation start to go down. I’ll know by tomorrow, probably. Writing: Mt. Hermon conference starts this Friday! On Thursday night, I’ll be at the Santana Row Borders bookstore to help out (and hopefully learn a bit, too) at a booksigning for several of the ACFW authors who are attending Mt. Hermon . That should be lots of fun. I had a good brainstorming time at ...
