I love series books. While I do enjoy the epic "multiple characters battle across 13 installments to defeat the foretold evil,"  my favorite style of series are ones that really focuses on the character and allows them to grow. (This is assuming I like the character in the first place.) This isn't to say their can't be an "epic evil" but there has ( Read more... )

I like LJ. Even though I never post, I'm always checking it because there seem to be a lot of interesting people around. 
I changed things up a little on my profile info and took out some old stuff. Hopefully, this will be the start of a new day where I actually post something interesting to someone and find more interesting people/groups to friend ( Read more... )

 I hate my neighbors so much. They must have the most obnoxious, irritating habits on the face of the planet ( Read more... )

Why are none of the movies that I want to see out now??? It is going to be forever, FOREVER I SAY, until Hell Boy 2, Dark Knight, and Iron Man are out. I also want to see that new Stephen Chow movie, Um..I thinks it called CJ37 or something like that, and the movie coming out which has both Jet Li AND Jackie Chan. And there won't even be anything ( Read more... )

 Since last Monday I have been down in Ada for police academy.  Right now we're getting introduced to lots of new material, so its meant that we've been stuck in a classroom for 10 hours every day-except for the first day, which was orientation and so it was only 5 hours plus the physical.

Some of the stuff I'm learning is pretty interesting. There ( Read more... )

Just got my lazy rear back from the gym.  I worked out on one of those stairmaster machines for 32 minutes on the fat burner setting, level 6.

It was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I have a whole new respect for girls who can do that stuff on max level for a million hours.  Hopefully my stuff is marginally more trim and muscular. I know ( Read more... )

I'm kind of stressing about the firearms score I need to qualify for CLEET.  I need a score of 70% to make it. Right now as of my 2 days on the range I'm shooting at 60% (12 out of 14) with the Glock ( Read more... )

I made the tastiest sandwiches today. They were some oven roasted curry potatoes in white pita bread with some cabot hunter's cheddar. So tasty. I ate two and was sad that I didn't have any more to eat. So tomorrow I'm going to make another pan full and then I'll have stuff to make for Monday's lunch. I need some fuji apples though too......The ( Read more... )

I went shooting at the range today. My hands hurt. They are all bruised and cut up and I think I mushed my middle knuckle on the right hand. The good news is I didn't shoot anyone!

That said, it was fun and tiring and frustrating all at the same time. I didn't know shootin a gun could be so complicated-or that loading ammo into a glock could be so ( Read more... )
