So I've realized, though I've always known, that I'm a very specific and obsessive type of shopper. I like browsing, though I rarely buy when I'm browsing.

I finally started Dance With Dragons today. I haven't gotten too far but its tantalizing. I'm pretty sure this will not be the book where Dany meets the rest of the Westerosi cast but maybe she'll set sail this book? Or at least get there next book? Who knows. I'm going to try and take this book a little slower and savor it. I blasted through the ( Read more... )

I had a strange dream last night. Well...it wasn't really strange compared to all the other dreams I have (actually this one's rather typical), but I thought I'd share it with all 2 of you because I haven't really blogged about my dreams before ( Read more... )
