car trouble
If I wasn't so busy, this car situation would be damn funny. Yesterday morning, I decided I was finally going to take my car into the shop to have the shocks and struts looked at.

Friday Five: Memories
1. Smells, and memories. Do you have a scent that when you smell it, brings up a memory? Do share.
The smell of an airport tarmac - that cold, crisp scent mingled with jet fuel - reminds me of travel and going to meet my then-boyfriend when he was coming back from school.
2. Songs. Is there a particular song that brings back happy memories? Song ( Read more... ) -
Book and Movie meme
Stolen from honest_illusion. I have to say, I have read a shamefully small number of these books, although that could be partly due to the fact I took advanced theatre instead of american lit my junior year of high school ( Read more... )
