Happy New Year. It's mostly a coincidence that this post is on Chinese New Year, but there you go. So far in 2009 I got really sick, worked a lot, had a fabulous sleepover, and got hooked on Heroes and Gossip Girl. Now school has begun again, and I won't have time for TV anymore. It was nice while it lasted, television.
I've been spending huge amounts of time daydreaming about my future "grown up" apartment. So much so that now I have a decent idea of what couch I want, and that i want my kitchen theme color to be pear green. Great use of my daydreaming time, I am sure. I've also discovered the overpriced furniture for my imaginary child's room, featuring this amazing toybox.
This morning, I was super excited about the techno-savvy of librarians; the ALA Youth Media Awards (among many others the Newbery and Caldecott) were announced this morning, and I was following via
Twitter. That is, until the twitter feed failed and it took me a whole extra hour to find out that Neil Gaiman won the Newbery for his novel The Graveyard Book.
I can't promise more updates, or any kind of return to normalcy in my posting life, but it's a start, right?
