have you seen this blogger? blue eyes, brown hair, says "spice" a whole lot...

Friends and fellow bloggers are concerned that their favorite blogger -- the adorable, witty, tongue-in-cheek writerslashbankerslashbabymaker Amber Murphy -- has not blogged in the better part of a week.

(*see disclosure at the end of the post)

Former school mate Ashley Stone, recalls Amber's last post. "I remember it was last week sometime, Wednesday, I think. She posted this google-image-game meme, where you attach photos to questions like Where is your hometown? and What is your favorite beverage? I remember it, because I posted the meme -- played the game -- the very next day. I sure hope everything is alright."

Tina Sandoval, virtual wife and soul mate, became concerned when she realized Amber hadn't posted last Thursday. "It's so rare for her to miss an opportunity to overshare," Sandoval noted, eyes wide with concern. "And I am pretty sure that the only time she did skip a TMI Thursday, she posted a special TMI: Friday Edition the very next day."

Sandoval wiped a few tears and said, "Plus, I really expected her to comment on my Dream Sequence Blogfest entry on June 4th. Four days later and I've gotten no feedback! Not a word. Nothing."

All around the blogosphere, her followers are wondering what the hell is up. Sierra Godfrey can't decide whether to be worried or pissed. ("What, is she just mad that I didn't link her in my Friday-reader-roundup last week? I mean, she didn't give me a ton to work with.") Sierra wanted to us tell Amber that if she returns to blogging, she promises to link her in her round-up, you know, if she posts something real good upon her big comeback.

The Big Litowski is still checking for her name in bold in his google reader. "I won't give up on Amber Murphy. I'm still waiting for pictures of her belly bump... and you know, some baby-growing-boobage, if you know what I'm sayin'..."

Perhaps the most scorned of all is Amber's Google Reader, who is weighed down with over 700 unread items. Google reader wanted us to beg Amber for a little TLC. G. Reader told us exclusively, "Look. I'll just be honest. It's been so long, I'm not even sure who she neglets more: me or her bikini line."

G. Reader rolled his eyes as the item total escalated with a few more published posts.

"Or should I say, bikinilinespice."

(Disclosure: All quotes from fellow bloggers are ficticious and in no way represent the truly feelings that these individuals may or may not have for the author of musings of amber murphy. Except for the quote from her Google Reader, who is seriously hot under the collar. And the one from Travener at The Big Litowski, who did comment on her blog once that he wanted to see her baby bump and pregnancy boobs. If she remembers correctly.)

Great picture selection!! I need to put that on my goodreads.com because I loved that book, haha.

Oh my gosh I so glad you are back, if only for a moment! You've been missed.

I'd use the "spice" word but I'm afraid I'm not gifted like you and several of your followers, I hope you can learn to forgive!

You have quoted me fictitiously but accurately. BTW, I'm less interested in the baby bump than the boobage, but you knew that already.

First Page Blogfester

Preface: TGIF. It has been a day. So. I'm participating in the First Page Blogfest in which writers around the blogosphere post the opening 24 lines of their WIP. (In a "real" book, this is the approximate amount of work that would appear on page 1!) This blogfest is being headed up by Kelly over at Kelly's Compositions . Please check out the other entries and leave them a comment on their work. My own WIP will be featured on Roni's Beta Club next week, and I chose an excerpt from the beginning one chapter one for critque over there, so today I'll give you the true beginning: the opening lines of my prologue. Here goes nothing. My working title is A SAD SONG IN A FLAT KEY Genre: Literary Fictionspice Prologue May 2005      Laurel sits Indian style. She faces the head of her bed and tries to focus on Cafe Terrace at Night, pretending it is priceless artwork instead of a cheap replica. She counts the tables first, and the...

I watched Hoarders last night. During the first commercial break, I dared to look around my living room and I thought, oh holy mother of four-letter-word. Color me cluttered. Yes, it's true that most of my mess is hidden and collecting dust in the dark, but I know what's there -- like the 100+ VHS tapes in my bookshelf/ media cabinet, for instance. Yes, I love knowing that should I desire to watch my old school copy of Riding in Cars with Boys or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun or The Royal Tenembaums or Serendipity or Ghost World or Memento or... okay. You get the picture. It's there. If I wanted it, it would be right there. Also semi-hidden? Probaby 50+ copies of this weekly magazine from the late 1960's - early 1970's called Story of Life. My grandma gave them to me. Have I cracked the cover of even one issue? Hell to the no. I don't have time for that type of nostalgia. Plus, I can't even find a link for it with a quick google search. Something tha...
