In The Holiday Spirit
I noticed that one of my favorite Christmas movies is on Hulu again. It's the ABC Family original movie "Snowglobe". I mainly enjoy watching it because I totally adore Christina Milian; oh, also because it's a cute story with a good moral. The story is best summed up with this scene:

History of the Reeves-Ruder Farm
This evening, Grandma and I were going through some old family history to ensure accuracy of the "sesquicentennial farm" status. In doing so, we pieced together a bit of family history and the origins of the house and this little corner of the town of Wheatland. The story that i've pieced together goes something like this:

A book review: The Ethical Slut
So, I've finished reading this very interesting book titled The Ethical Slut (Dossie Easton; Celestial Arts). I've been given the impression that it's one of the definitive books on polyamorous lifestyles (link included to wiktionary.org).
