As promised, here's the master list of everything I posted during the February Recs Challenge. If you missed something or fell behind, feel free to peruse.

( Take me to the master list! )

Today I had to do the type of work function that requires networking, trying to convince strangers how great my company is, and standing around in uncomfortable shoes. I am good at none of these things. But now it is over -- happy Friday to me and to everyone! I have lit candles all over the living room, wrapped myself in a blanket, and put up my ( Read more... )

*waves* Feeling more cheerful today -- apologies for my crankiness the other night. That's the problem with this posting every day thing; you get me in all moods ( Read more... )

My Comments:
lionille pointed me to this fic a while back and I was quite seduced by it. I really enjoy when fanfic authors flesh minor characters from the books out into ( Read more... )

Hmmm. I'm feeling randomly annoyed by a few things on my flist today, and not for any good reason. It's just the usual opinions and squee. I think I'm just cranky. (And why the hell am I cranky?

I started reading Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen on Saturday after I got back from the library, and it's excellent.

I'm having one of those nights where, if I didn't have to post a rec a day, I probably wouldn't post anything. *shrug*

In good news, ( WE GOT SNOW! )

*bounces* We are supposed to get snow tonight -- perhaps up to five inches when it's all said and done! Of course, it will probably be more like an inch and a half and then a bunch of freezing rain that turns into ice and slush -- it's really been a lame winter so far. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed ( Read more... )
