(Alright, so I'm testing the theory that I'll post more than my usual once every two week spurt if I focus more on twitter like lines, generally on whatever book I'm starting, music I'm liking, or so on, not what I had for lunch, and maybe whatever else springs into my head. I'm trying to get into using Facebook/Twitter more, but more as something ( Read more... )

It's the start of my vacation and I couldn't be happier about it. I'm going no where. I will not be seeing my parents. Hell, I don't even know if I'll call them this week, though I suppose I should. Father's day coming up and all. I'm looking through Kade's music as he's asleep in our bedroom. On Wednesday/Thursday it rained for about 16 hours on ( Read more... )

My employee appreciation extra discounts started this Friday, so I ordered Absolute Sandman volumes 1 to 4. I am so flipping excited to get these and finally complete my Sandman collection. My graphic novels section on my bookshelf is pretty slim. I have my tattered copy of The Crow, that I got when I was 12 or 13, then the first three books of ( Read more... )

So my week has been almost entirely devoted to the Sims 3. Hooray, it's finally out! So far I've enjoyed it. There's some things I like better, some things that I wish were kept the same, but otherwise its good.

I'm thinking I may be ready to start writing (and reading) again more regularly. I'm at a rare moment at this exact time where Kade is engrossed in a game that isn't an MMORPG so I'm free to write, and though I'm exhausted from work, which usually makes me not want to work, and slightly sick, also not helpful, I think I will anyhow. Thank you to ( Read more... )

Alright, enough ignoring this journal for the week! I'm going to write, goddamn it! I've been sick the last week, so feeling rather blah. Anyhow, where to start...First with what I've been reading, I think.

I finished the first book of The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor, I believe it's set to be a trilogy, the second book, Seeing Redd, is ( Read more... )

Mostly to remind me what I'd like to read in the future....Most of these I would like to read in the future, so I'm only going to underline what I either have on my shelf or plan to do soon. Edit: Erk, some of the list got bolded when it wasn't suppose to be, but it's fixed now.

Directions: These are the top one-hundred-six books most often marked ( Read more... )

So, everything at work is going really well. All of the people there have been extremely nice and all of the associates really seem to enjoy each other's company, which is great. Today was my third or forth day of training and I was pretty much left to my own devices. I had a woman refresh me on the register functions but she unfortunately got too ( Read more... )
