Funniest Things That Have Happened To Me! #L&SR’s Weekly Blogging Challenge
Happy Holidays! Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge November 18, 2020, Funniest things that have happened to me. I puzzled on this one until my puzzler was sore, again! (Dr. Seuss) Pull up a chair, grab a drink of your choice from the cauldron. Take your choice of a Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodle, or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate.
Not sure if 2020 has sucked all the fun and good out of my world, or what, but I couldn’t think of a single funny thing that has happened to me. No don’t get me wrong, I’m not a mundane person, but … So I’ll tell you about funny things that happened to people and animals around me. Maybe I was the catalyst. Who knows. You be the judge.
First funniest things happened to our black and white cat, Aspen. I dropped a marshmallow on the floor, when I bent to pick it up, Aspen beat me to it. FIrst it stuck to her nose, then she batted with her paw, yep you guessed it, the marshmallow stuck to her paw, then she shook and flipped her paw, the marshmallow when flying and stuck to her tail. By this time I was laughing so hard my sides hurt. Finally, I took pity on her and took the sticky white ball off her. The she gave me the “eat shit and die look” as if it was all my fault she stole the marshmallow that fell on the floor. Aspen stalked into the other room and ignored me the rest of the day.
Shortly after I was married, we took a trip to Disneyland and Universal Studios. We took my mom because she’d never been to either amusement park. Walking through Universal Studios back then was a blast. What made it more entertaining was the character dressed like Frankenstein, took a liking to my mom. This monster, well over seven feet tall, followed her all over amid her screams and trying to shoo him away. It was hilarious as a crowd gathered to watch the antics. My mom failed to find the humor in it, which made it all the funnier.
We get hellacious winds in Colorado. Sixty to eighty mph is not unusual. Our puppy was about eight to ten weeks old and we’d let her outside to do her business. Yes, we were watching her. You have to understand this puppy, Mystic, always bounced and pounced rather than walk or run. Apparently, she bounced at the wrong time and the wind picked her up and send her tumbling end over end across the backyard. She looked like a furry ball rolling across the yard. Of course we rushed to her aid. Ater we made sure she was all right, we succumbed to gales of laughter. She wasn’t bothered at all. The minute we put her back on the ground, she shook herself off and started to chase leaves again. At that point, we picked her up and went in the house.
We were driving in YellowStone National Park, when this guy on a motorcycle ahead of us slammed his kickstand down, leaned the bike over and ran up the hill. We wondered that the heck. Then we saw, what the heck. A huge buffalo with twigs and pine boughs stuck in his horns was storming down the road swinging his head from side to side bellowing. Traffic was backed up behind him and we were on the other side of the road. He walked right up to the side of our van and looked in the window. We held our breath. We were holding our dogs mouth shut so she wouldn’t draw the bufflow’s attention. He finally passed on by, but I could just see us having to call the insurance company and tell them our brand new mini van had been gored by a buffalo in Yellowstone. Now it’s funny, then we were scared to death the buffalo was going to gore our van. Not a very good picture as the massive animal approached, but we were scared the clicking noise from the camera would attract his attention. You can see our side mirror in the lower right hand corner.
Alas, I must return to my writing cave where deadlines loom preparing promo on my new release HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC. Stay tuned! Chocolate Raspberry Magic release date been extended until April 2021. And I’ve turned in the sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series to my editor at The WIld Rose Press. Fingers crossed she likes it. AND I’m starting a new project Wylder West Assignment. Keep an eye out for more information. Now let’s see what the other author’s list as funniest things that have happened to them. Hopefully they thought of more than I did. LOL L&SR

Interview M.C. Solaris Author of Calypso’s Heart
Give a warm welcome to M.C. Solaris, author of Calypso’s Heart, An Orion’s Order Novel, Book one.
Pull up a chair, grab a drink of your choice from the cooler, a Chocolate Chip or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate, and let’s find out a little about MC and Calypso’s Heart.
What inspired you to write?
I can’t logically explain it. During the super blood moon eclipse in January 2019, I literally woke up and began writing bios for my imaginary friends (AKA the characters that were suddenly in my head introducing themselves and sharing their world with me). As soon as I started writing, I couldn’t stop. The words or scenes are in my mind, nudging me to stop whatever I’m doing and write them down immediately. And if I don’t write them down then the urge to whip out the notepad on my phone and release the words onto the page gets stronger and stronger until I do so. This is how Calypso’s Heart was written—me just writing down the story that I saw playing out in my head like a movie.
How long have you been writing?
I’m a brand new author and Calypso’s Heart is my first novel! In December of 2018, I published my first book (non-fiction) under my birth name, Marina Schroeder. A lot of Ignite Your Inner Goddess is basically my journaled notes and diary entries of my very personal women’s health journey. And it’s wholeheartedly different than writing a fiction/romance novel.
As an interesting related side note, I did not plan or imagine that I’d ever be writing a fiction/romance novel! In fact, I was already in the middle of writing my second non-fiction women’s health book…That is, until I woke up during that crazy super blood moon eclipse and started writing Calypso’s Heart.
Do you see yourself in your characters?
In some ways and with certain characters, yes, I do see some relatable similarities. But there are also many qualities and characteristics that are wholeheartedly not me too. For example, Caly and I both love music, morning drinks, and romance books (Oh, and we both love the hot alpha wolf, Blake! 😉 ). On the other hand, Caly lived alone (which I’ve never done nor do I foresee myself ever doing) and without giving away the story, she makes some decisions that I don’t think I would ever do.
Where do your story ideas come from? If they come to you in the middle of the night, do you get up and write them all down?
I kind of already alluded to this but the stories just come to me. Some come in dreams. Some come right when I wake up (in that magical state of mind between sleep and awake). Some come when I’m at the grocery store or in the middle of a workout. Funny story, the cover for Calypso’s Heart actually came to me when I was on the phone with my sister and stepping up a storm on the StairMaster. Of course, I take inspiration from everyday life but the stories themselves seem to have a mind of their own and are definitely in the driver’s seat. Oh, and yes, whenever the scene pops into my head, I stop whatever I’m doing and immediately write it down, no matter what time it is or where I am.
What do you like to do when you are not writing?
Reading romance novels (duh!), eating yummy foods, walking on the beach, and swimming in the ocean. Oh, and playing with my furbabies (3 cats who love to run around with a random spurt of energy at 4am lol 😉 ).
Sexy shifters. Hot vampires. Intriguing immortals. Strong heroine. Sizzling romance. Page-turning plot full of emotion and excitement. Modern and fresh take on fated mates.CalyDo you dream of ridiculously hot men? Okay, maybe you do. (And yes, I’m well aware I should lay off the romance books before bed.) But do you actually ever meet those men you dream about in real life? I didn’t think so. That’s probably a good thing though because I have… And these men from my dreams have done nothing but pull the rug of reality out from under me… which was how I fell and ended up in a world that I thought only existed in romance books.My name is Caly (AKA Callie) and I’m just an ordinary single woman living the LA dream… paycheck to paycheck. Except whose dream is it? I’m not really sure… but it’s not my dream. Especially because I have really weird dreams… like really weird. Then again, everyone has weird dreams, right?BlakeI am an alpha wolf shifter and leader of Orion’s Order, a pack of… well, not wolves. We’re an unconventional pack of highly skilled specian hunters that do one thing: hunt the evil in our world. And we were hired by SILE (Species Investigative Law Enforcement) to hunt a bloodthirsty criminal who is infamously untraceable. That was until an irresistible female brought an unexpected twist to our hunt and set things in motion… a motion that has left my pack and our world forever changed.Welcome to The Order and a secret world of magic and mystery, where a pack of unlikely friends find love and fight against an ancient evil force.

A sneak peek between the pages of Calypso’s Heart
“I had another dream about Mr. Mysterious. You know, with the gorgeous golden eyes…” She exhaled out a dreamy sigh. “Except…” Her thoughts trailed off as she recalled just how strange the dream ended up. She lazily reached her hand toward the sound of Felix’s purrs, as if they were a homing beacon. Her hand landed on what felt like jean fabric on something solid and warm. The instant contact was made, it flexed.
Muscle? she silently questioned and her brows furrowed slightly. She coaxed her heavy eyelids open and she was met with a pair of impossibly golden eyes… the eyes belonging to the handsome man in her dreams… who just happened to be sitting on her bed next to her.
“Nevermind Felix… I’m still dreaming,” Caly said with a relaxed half-smile. God. This man is taking over my dreams… But she wasn’t complaining.
“Mr. Mysterious?” Blake teased with a slight curve of his lips.
She sleepily laughed. “You’re not supposed to know your own nickname.” She looked down and saw that Felix was curled up in his lap purring in utter bliss. Damn if that wasn’t cute. And damn if he wasn’t even more gorgeous this close up. She scratched Felix behind the ears in just the spot he loved. “Even if this is a dream, if Felix likes you, then you can’t be that bad,” she admitted with another lazy chuckle. “He hissed at the last guy I brought home. And it turned out Felix was right. That guy was an ass.”
Blake steered his thoughts away from the sudden desire to go find whoever this guy was and teach him a lesson. Jesus. Stay focused.
“Caly, this is not a dream.”
“Yes it is. How else is the most handsome man with the gorgeous golden eyes from my dreams here, in my bed?” Her body was reacting in a very feminine way to his masculine presence. She wanted him and her body knew that.
There was another curve of his lips and his chest puffed out a little more than necessary. What was this female doing to him? Focus, he repeated the silent order.
“You know that I’m Blake from Orion’s Order. But what I don’t know is how you know that.”
Scenting the slightest hint of her arousal in the air, his body began to react in response. Jesus. Her scent is like a drug, Blake thought on an internal groan.
Hell, this is a dream, Caly thought. So, who was she to deny herself? Besides, with all that eye gazing in the other dreams, okay minus the kidnapping one, it felt like she knew him on some level. Still utterly relaxed and now a little sinfully playful, she closed the distance between them and curled up against his body—his very warm and muscled body. With a graceful leap, Felix padded off the bed to his favorite sun spot on the window sill, hidden behind the curtain where it trapped the most heat.
Wow. He smells so good. It was a dark, musky, masculine scent. Natural though—not some artificial store-bought scent. She sighed deeply. This was turning out to be a very good dream. She curled up next to him. She fit perfectly as if her body was meant to be at his side.
Blake went to put his arm around her shoulder and stopped midway. What was he doing? Focus damn it. Since when had a female had him reacting like this?
It was wonderful having you with us today. Please feel free to stop by anytime. Good Luck with Calypso’s Heart!

A bit about A Vampire’s Unlikely Alliance:
Stefan is a Native American vampire, former assassin for the Vampire Council. In a twist of fate, he now DJ’s the midnight shift for a small radio station in Whitefish, Montana, on the edge of Glacier National Park where his secret is safe until…
Born in Ireland, Brandy now works as a park ranger and trail guide in the park. During a full moon, Stefan and Brandy’s paths cross in a near physical collision on a trail. Their attraction is immediate and undeniable, almost as if fate demanded it.
Their union was foretold long ago in Irish folk tales where vampires and gryphons, warlocks and demons, witches and faeries must work together for the good of man and magic kind. Is a trip to Ireland the key to unraveling secrets and returning the magic? And even more importantly, will their love survive the trip?
A sneak peek between the pages of A Vampire’s Unlikely Alliance:
It was nearly midnight when he cut across the Sun Road to another trailhead, so intent on his goal that he nearly collided with an attractive young woman. He skidded to a stop, spraying gravel, rocks, and small twigs down the road in front of him. A pinecone dislodged and bounced along the road past her. Tall and slender, she had miles of fiery-red hair that hung down her back in a cascade of curls. Intense emerald eyes stared back at him as he attempted to regain his composure, not to mention balance. What the hell was she doing here at this time of night?
“Whoa.” She stepped lightly to the side to avoid the flying debris. “You really should watch where you’re going, especially at that speed.” Her voice scolded, but the smile on her lips teased. “Someone could get hurt.”
Pretending to pant, he shrugged, holding his palms up in surrender. “Just trying to get my run in before work. Stefan Talltree, at your service.” He stepped closer, leaned over in an exaggerated bow, and caught her hand, brushing his lips over the palm and wrist, inhaling her sweet scent. AB negative with a pulse of adrenaline. Perfect. Her pulse beat a tattoo against his lips. He backed away.
Her heart thundered as she drew her hand from his grasp. “The name’s Brandy. Pleased to meet you, Stefan.” Her smile reached up into her bright eyes as they swept over him with an appreciative glance, an experience he enjoyed.
Her voice had a hint of Irish lilt to it. He liked that too.
“Where do you work that requires you to report in at—” She glanced at her watch. “—midnight?”
Nostrils flaring, he paused. Blood? Not hers. The sound of Brandy’s voice brought his attention back to her and the situation at hand. “Oh, shit, I’ve gotta go!” He sprinted off, leaving her standing alone.
As he started down the trail, the tree branches swayed in the silvery moonlight, casting eerie shadows across the trail’s edge. The breeze brought with it the coppery scent of fresh blood mixed with sulfur. He turned for one last look at her as she wrinkled her nose before silently creeping into the wind, tracking the source of the stench.
