Dream New Dreams
I won this book in a First Reads giveaway on Goodreads a couple of weeks ago and I'm so glad I did. My father past away back in September and I strongly believe fate stepped in to bring this book to my life. I can relate to a lot of the things she went through while grieving and it makes me think about things that have happened in my own life. It ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
There never seems to be enough time to read all the books I have in my room. Granted, there are times when all I do is either sleep 8-9 hours a night followed up by a nap later in the day or go to the store to do some window shopping. However, a lot of the time I'm working both of my jobs which can take up to 14 hours or so of my day. I really ( Read more... ) -
My weekend
On Friday morning, I went to pick up my neice on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Most people are intimidated by going across the Chesapeake Bay bridge but, I love it! I think the bridge is around 5 miles long ( I could be wrong) and pretty high up in the air. If you have a fear of heights, this is not the bridge for you. When I crossed the ( Read more... ) -
"Good Luck"
Last night was one of the few times that I was on the verve of an anxiety/panic attack that centered around me absolutely NEEDING to get out of the house. I won't get into the specifics but, let's just say, I don't want to be at home right now. I texted a couple of friends a couple of friends and bolted. Those friends couldn't meet up with ( Read more... ) -
Spirits don't like me
Last Friday, I went to another group spirit medium session at Crystal Fox. I took my niece our friend and our friend's boyfriend. We were the only people who happened to be there that night (aside from Maximus the cat and the spirit medium). The spirit medium was able to contact spirits for everyone in the room except for me. I am starting ( Read more... ) -
I'm an idiot and I love it
I had one of my "dude, seriously?" moments on the way to the library with my niece and our friend today. We were stopped at a red light next to the left turn lane. The light for that lane turned green but the car didn't turn- it just stayed there. At a certain point, I turned my head to see what was going on. The guy in the car rolled down his ( Read more... ) -
Happy New Year!
One of my friends called me yesterday (on Valentine's Day) to wish me a happy New Year- Chinese New Year! To say I was at a loss for words for a moment was an understatement. To compound my speechlessness (yes that's a word- my word!) was the fact that I was in the bathroom and this friend of mine tends to be a little long winded. How do you get ( Read more... ) -
Snow Blown
All of this snow the DC area is getting lately is staggering. We are about to shatter the record for amount of snow fall in a season. I may be a history buff and everything but, it doesn't mean I want to live through something like this. I prefer reading about other going through this nonsense.
To top everything off, I lost one of the ( Read more... ) -
No More Snow!
We, in the DC area, are getting entirely too much snow this winter. I am not that much of a fan of the snow. I think we are getting around 2 feet this weekend. The snowfall amount for the whole winter this year is going to measure in the top 5 winters of all time. I might even reach number1 by the end of this winter. People who live in the ( Read more... ) -
Disappointing dinner, snow and hockey
I went toChik-Fila-A about an hour ago and got myself a couple of chicken sandwiches. I ae one of them and was eagerly awaiting the moment when I scarfed down the other one. I took maybe two bites and then it happened: I went to bite and heard a bunch of crackling. I looked at what the crackling could be and was amazed (and disgusted) when ( Read more... )
