Happy Easter!

Bunny.

Buh…Buh…Buh…Bunny who?

The countdown continues. 1

If you’re enjoying an Easter Egg Hunt today, I’d recommend following this dude Bunny.

It’s Saturday. Hie thee outside.

Elen

Not only is he rolling into town, but he’s carting things around. Things that look suspiciously like E-eggs. Check the scarf. This is definitely a Northern Bunny. I have that scarf in a different color set. Might have the ears, too.

The countdown continues.

We’re hatching link love on the blog today. No foolin’!

Finds on the Feed:

For Writers — from the Girlfriends Book Club blog: Simon Says by Hank Phillippi Ryan. Ryan dishes about Paul Simon on lyrics as literature. Oh, I wish I could have been there. Some of the most powerful stories I know are told in lyrics, and I’m a huge Paul Simon fan.

For Writers — @ NathanBransford. 99 Cent E-Books and the Tragedy of the Commons. The title speaks for itself. The comment section is as thought-provoking as the article.

For Freelancers — @ JaneFriedman. The Two Rules for Successful Freelance Pricing by guest author Laurie Lewis. Lewis speaks from her 25 years of experience as a freelance medical writer.

For Lovers of Small Spaces — from Small Notebook for a simple home blog: Smart Design from a Petite Venetian Kitchen by Rachel Meeks. Oh, how I love the simplicity of this.

TGIF, baby!

I love this bunny. He’s got some serious ‘tude going on. And he knows how to pull off wearing pink.

Let the countdown begin.

This is what is known at my site as a Blog Quickie.

Ornery Sven is on my case.

It’s Holy Week in my household.

And…. Mr. Bunny is coming. Hope he comes on a chopper to my house. Just sayin’.

The next day, it was back. Now I’m thinking — dang those ornery racoons. You might think that is presumptuous of me. Nuh unh. They’ve been feasting on squash seeds out of my compost bin for the last three nights. They just slide back that lid smooth as you please, and party hardy. I took my broom and swept it away.

The next day, I stepped over it in total denial. Total. Denial.

This morning, I decided to head to the mall for story plotting shopping. What? I can multi-task. I walked out the door and saw this –

And this –

And this –

The birds are coming for me, and they’re planning on moving in, staying on, taking over, pecking my plot right out of my brains…

I know. You can’t get past the fact that my porch light has not seen the cleaning that is Spring.

Get past it.

The Birds are coming, I tell you. Coming.

Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds is one of my favorite films. The man could do tension. The man could do thrills and chills. The man was brilliant.

This is my favorite trailer for The Birds.

Enjoy!

p.s. While I was plotting shopping, I found a great pair of flats, some cute new yoga pants from Roots, and a black & taupe cotton sweater jacket with details. It was a good plotting morning.
