Happy Friday!! Ranting as usual

Well, I'm resisting changing over with bloggers new interface. They will have to tie me up, screaming before I let go of what I'm used to. Dumb a**es. Where do these people get off thinking everyone wants to change? I don't. I've done fine with it all this while, so no. I'm not voluntarily changing.

Also, I don't know why we have to be all that concerned with how "popular" we are. I think everything I do right now is enough. I don't have time to worry about Klout. If you want to be that worried about how popular you are and how many people are checking things out, go see how many books you're selling and then you'll know. I don't have time for Twitter let alone Pinterest. I can't even figure out what Pinterest is really for.

Okay. Done ranting. I've got news but I'm running out of time and will have to come back on weekend. Hope you all have a great Friday!

What The Hell Friday

BLOOD.

This morning I had to go to watch a training video on blood born pathogens. Well, jokingly I asked if this video had any vampires in it. Nope. Darn!

Did anyone see that show about "Vampire Secrets", I think it was on the History Channel? I spoke to one person who did, and I know what it's about, now. I actually belong to a vampire site where many of the individuals are either psychic or sanguine vampires.

And since we're on the subject of BLOOD, I spoke to one student about the whole idea of drinking blood (I drive NIU students around campus and off campus), and he is a biology major. He knows that I've written a vampire novel, and was talking about the fact that drinking human blood does get a person high. You might recall in True Blood episodes/books where they touch upon vampire blood being a "drug".He said this is an actual fact, and he explained the reasons about it, and since I'm not an expert on the hows and whys of it all, I'll just leave it as a titillation for now. Possibly I might come back to it in another post.

In the meantime, here is a bit of a teaser scene--speaking of blood--from my WIP. It's very short, but interesting.
