Happy Autumn!
If you've been with me awhile, even just lurking, you will know how much I love changing my layouts. Even though I loved my previous Green Spring version, it took a huge amount of willpower to resist changing it early to the Orangey Red Autumn one that you see now, because autumn is without a doubt my favorite season. I love everything about it ( Read more... ) -
adventures in grocery shopping, original fiction, Scott Westerfeld, and kitties
Not that this has anything to do with anything, but I went grocery shopping the other day...and had my lowest bill yet since moving! It's really exciting. I think I'm really learning which foods I can use as staples in any meal, and which foods are worth splurging on. I don't buy soda for myself anymore - I only buy milk - and I allow myself two ( Read more... ) -
success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it
Did not accomplish any writing today, and alarmingly I suddenly feel like there's not enough time in the day to complete all my tasks.

The Secret Hour (Midnighters #1)
Was AWESOME. I am so glad I got the second and third one today, because I'm definitely going to inhale them. Along with anything else Scott Westerfeld has written. It's times like this that I really wish I could write coherent book reviews. Westerfeld has such a way with words, and that was what originally won me over. But then, to have a ( Read more... ) -

So. Hi! -
lazing around and eating junk food is my kind of labor day
So I've recently developed a fondness for crossword puzzles. When I was an undergrad, our newspaper always ran one puzzle each day a paper was printed, and it was something to attempt during a particularly boring class. I always got frustrated with them, having no real previous experience with crossword puzzles, because they do require a ( Read more... ) -
you knew this was coming - breaking dawn
The drama surrounding Breaking Dawn doesn't make me feel good. I now see first hand what the Harry Potter fandom deteriorated into, and I hate it. Of course we are allowed to have our alliances - I am, always have been, and always will be, Team Edward. I do NOT think he's abusive, just as I do NOT think Jacob is aggressive. I enjoy engaging in ( Read more... ) -
