First of all, yeah, I get it. I'm old. You kids get off my damn lawn blah-blah-blah. Tastes are subjective and everyone likes different things and I know I am not the age group being targeted by today's musicians of any genre ( Read more... )

Lately I have been in a bad place, mentally. I've struggled with depression for as long as I can remember. I can remember feeling like this as a very young child, with the inability to even begin to express what I was feeling. Perhaps that's why words are so important to me.

8. Matthew Hopkins - Witchfinder GeneralI will sing to the heavens praises of Vincent Price to anyone who will listen, and even to those who would prefer not to.

I plan to pop on here from time to time with random things I'd like to see more of in books. Of all kinds, not just urban fantasy/paranormal romance.

Real Female Friendships. I don’t mean friendships in which one woman is the sparkling paragon of kicking-ass-but-still-hot-enough-for-the-guys while the other is a mousy, frowzy little milquetoast ( Read more... )

I don’t know which customers bug me more, the ones who don’t have any idea what they want when they come into the store (a specialty store, btw, not a general whatever-the-hell you need store) or the ones who obviously don’t have another soul in their life and who are desperately craving human contact like a heroin addict in the third day of ( Read more... )
