ElicBxn @DaddyEvil I know it is hard to get on disability. In September before I turned 62, I went to the 'local' SS office. The lady learned I had stopped working for the State at 51 and why. She asked me why I didn't want to try to get disability, because I'd get...

ElicBxn @DaddyEvil I can understand that too. I worked the NASFC and did go down for the afternoon to the World Con in San Antonio, but it got to where I only went to cons where I wanted to see a writer or fan run cons - these being more media oriented. I used to...

ElicBxn If you like fantasy, her Valdamar books would be a good place to start. I know there are lots of folks who don't like fantasy and/or science fiction, but I do.

ElicBxn @DaddyEvil I know I've read a few Piers Anthony. I enjoyed them, but not enough to go looking for more of them. I read Night Mare just after the time Austin hosted the NASFC (North American Science Fiction Convention) in 1985. The lead up to the convention...

ElicBxn I'm talking about a book written by a favorite writer. The roomie has read the first one who knows how long ago, but early in the first book the person who the story is about was reading about a historical figure who she wasn't quite sure was a real person....

ElicBxn I have a lot. I'm afraid some of the more recent ones, the founding ones and maybe one of the last spy ones are in the roommate's room. I have Feuds, the short stories... I'm about half done with it. I have collected writers over the years. So far, I've...

ElicBxn @BarBaraPrz OH YES! Back when I worked, the office was going to have some sort of lunch were people brought in dishes. Someone thought it was a good idea to put a small crock pot full of corn next to my desk. It was... move it or I will have to leave. They...

ElicBxn Me too! Since my back has been so bad I can barely do anything. I save up my spoons for Wednesdays and I have had a few times I barely have enough to finish. I’m sure the cats appreciate it.

ElicBxn @BarBaraPrz way back in the mid 2010s a stink bug got in my bedroom. I thought it didn’t smell bad but the cats did. On the other hand, my nose is a bit broken - as in I don’t have the best sense of smell.

ElicBxn @DaddyEvil we were worried about the bird because it had been flying around since at least 3 and the only thing it might have been able to eat were a few tiny bugs. I know that hummingbirds do eat bugs but it had spent so much energy trying to get out is why...

ElicBxn @celticeagle I just wanted a name for such a brave cat. His hair is so long I wasn’t sure if he were male or female. I wasn’t surprised when he was a boy I often find the boy cats are cut from a different cloth than the girls.

ElicBxn By the time we caught the bird it was dark and getting cold. Even when the turtle was found and put out it was getting cold. I told my friend to put it in an area with tall grass it could get down in. It was after that we finally got the bird where it was able...
