My Daguerreotype Boyfriend 
Seriously, this is my favorite website to look at every day!  Have you checked it out?  Inevitably, I think the Irish prisoners are the hottest.

Children's Book-a-Day Almanac
I also love to read this one.  Learn interesting things like how a guy broke into Buckingham Palace one day and was sitting in the Queen's bedroom ( Read more... )

Home from work, a nice relaxing evening at the laundromat ahead of me.  I decided to postpone my joy at the laundromat and post here first.  :D

Things I love--this week--and in no particular order....

1. Weekend Novelist.  I'm totally loving this book!  Sorry to keep talking about the same things, but I'm really lovin' this book!  You know how sometimes ( Read more... )

Here's a cool post about cleaning and writing, two of my personal preoccupations.
