Currently i am listening to Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert - I just finished The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver and was eager to listen to another audiobook, although I was skeptical about finding anything as mindblowingly awesome as Kingsolver's novel.

They say that in life we will be drawn to others who share many of the same qualities that we ourselves possess. And yet, I never knew that when I brought home a miniscule Boston Terrier on December 30, 2009, that I would be living with a creature that resembled me in so many ways. Molly and I were both born with weak immune systems; while I was ( Read more... )

Espresso tastes infinitely better at 8 in the morning when it is raining out. I get to wear my rain boots or "fake wellies" today as well, which puts me in a good mood because, hey, who doesn't love wearing rain boots? Especially ridiculously bright floral-patterned boots.

I woke up early today of my own volition. Upon waking up, I panicked because ( Read more... )
