O, looky! Another month and a half has gone by...

Yeah, there's that.  Whoops.  My bad.  I keep meaning to, but _(fill in the excuse of your choice here)_.

So, what's been going on in my life? (With some thinks to keep my sister occupied - since I've been woefully neglectful in that area!)

TV shows I've now watched all episodes of (and enjoyed with ridiculous abandon):
1. Bones
2. Dollhouse
3. how i met your mother

Books I've read (in the last month, in general order of how much I liked them):
1. Boneshaker by Cherie Priest
2. Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
3. The Greatest Show on Earth: the Evidence for Evolution by Richard Dawkins
4. Liar by Justine Larbalestier
5. BtVS Season 8 Vol 5: Predators and Prey by Jane Espenson et al.
6. B is for Bad Poetry by Pamela August Russell
7. Black Plants: 75 Striking Choices for the Garden by Paul Bonine
8. Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters by Ben Winters
9. Among the Imposters (Shadow Children #2) by Margaret Haddix
10. Among the Betrayed (Shadow Children #3) by Margaret Haddix

Spectacular vacations I've taken:
1. Holden Beach, NC - 1st full week of October - friend of a friend owns a beach house on the beach and it was awesome!

Most recent additions to the list of blogs I read on at least an irregular basis:
1. Avery Edison - funny girl.  Especially the Jesus and Judas conversations.
2. delagar - Science, feminism, politics, religion, education.
3. Evil Mad Scientist Labs - Just what it says.  Projects, link dumps, Q&A's. 
4. Alone and Unobserved - Associate librarian, grad student, occasional mathematician.
5. Pharyngula - Prof at the Univ of Minnesota (Morris), biologist and atheist.

Online games I've recently picked up (one of the excuses for not updating this!):
1. Canabalt - very simple flash game where you're trying to escape a city being overrun by robots.  There's only one control: Jump!  I die a lot.  ;)
2. GemCraft Chapter 0 - much more complex game.  It's a newer version of a tower defense game I really liked.  I'm enjoying this one, too.
3. Plants vs. Zombies - PopCap Games has certainly got a winner with this one.  I loved it so much I bought it.

My bladder is screaming at me, so I will wrap this up now.  ;)

links, life
