Last night I took my car in to Sears to get the oil changed. I chose Sears primarily because I work all day, and they're the only place I could find that stayed open late, and also because I know two of the mechanics there, one of whom is a fairly nice boy. We arrived there around 5:35, and the man who checked us in said it'd be about an hour and a ( Read more... )

I had a dream last night that a used bookstore opened up in Cedar Key. I just had to go in it, of course, but I didn't have much hope that there'd be many good things in there. However, it was HUGE and overflowing with books, most of which were series I used to like back in middle school and elementary. There were Boxcar Children, Nancy Drew, ( Read more... )

I just reserved a copy of the first Buffy the Vampire Slayer comic book! It comes out March 7th, and it's a continuation of the series, totally canon, and Joss Whedon is overseeing the entire project and writing some of the issues, including the first one.

Even though the school board ( Read more... )

That is less than 6 months away, and it's only 2 days after my birthday!!! YAY, I'm sooooo excited that I'll finally get to find out the ending and answer all my questions. It's also really sad though since I've been ( Read more... )

So I'm at work, and I need to know who publishes this journal entitled Ethnology. I google "Ethnology afterlife of asabano corpses," (that's the beginning of an article in the journal) and Google asks me "Did you mean: Ethnology afterlife of azkaban corpses."

Last month I won a book, and then today I won two tickets to see the Nutcracker! I think this is fairly awesome for a number of reasons, most specifically that I never win anything. Maybe my luck is changing! Yay!
