This was was my first day back at the office since Christmas Eve. I woke up at 7:54 to discover that I had failed to set my alarm the night before. Luckily for me, I'd already made my lunch and normally leave myself an extra 30 minutes each morning to read. No reading this morning, obviously, but I was not late getting to the office ( Read more... )

My friend C---- has a nasty habit of buying me the first book in a fun series, leaving me to shell out for the rest. This year was no exception. I literally walked into a bookstore for the next two books in the series minutes after I finished reading this one.
