My New Obsession

E-readers are my latest obsession. Words on the go. In a compact device. I don’t have to pick one or two books that will easily fit into my bags- I can take tens of them where ever I go.

I found InkyGirl a little over a month ago, and I really love her stuff.

It’s My Blogiversary!

It’s my official Blogiversary.
One year ago today, Suzanne called me and told me to check out my new website.
I fell in love instantly. I had been blogging before, but not like this. This was a whole ‘nother level, and way more fun.
I’ve learned a lot in the past year, and I intend to improve and grow in the coming year.
I hope you’ll stick around for the ride.

Books In The Bathroom

OK, so my friend T has more books than I can shake a stick at.  Her den will induce book envy in even the most die-hard bibliophile.  But the coup de’ gras is her guest bathroom.She has a bookshelf of an appropriate size loaded with cool reading material.
When The Man and I consolidated homes (i.e., moved in together) the question of what to do with all of my books came up.  Basically, he didn’t think it was cool for me to keep them in boxes and piles in the living …

The Second Time Around

I went to the wedding of my former sister-in-law this weekend. This is her second marriage, and she looked REALLY happy.  And the groom looked REALLY happy.  And it made me think that sometimes when I go to weddings, neither party looks REALLY happy about what they are doing.
It could be that one or both parties are hung over from the bachelor/bachelorette parties.
Or it could be that they are just very serious people.
Or  very nervous people.
But really, when I think about some of the weddings I’ve been to over the …

Makeover- Not!

When things aren’t going well in one area of life for me, I usually start looking for ways to improve every other area in life.
A couple of weeks ago, I started thinking that maybe I needed a website makeover.
Nothing drastic, just a little reorganization.  Move some stuff around.  I did it at the beginning of the year and was really pleased with the outcome. So what’s the big deal, right?
The big deal is that I don’t need a website makeover.  I need to address the stuff in life that isn’t …

Prince Opus iPod

I am a HUGE Prince fan.  Did I say HUGE?  That probably doesn’t even begin to describe it.  
For Christmas, The Man gave me a coffee table book detailing the Beloved Purple One’s career.  No one can touch that book but me.  Unless they are ready to die.  And for the record, I don’t have a coffee table.  A story for another day.
Before I hit the road this morning for a day of meetings in Columbia, I heard that the Prince Opus iPod was being released today. I couldn’t leave …

Fan Girl

It was a rainy Saturday morning, and I was indulging in the relative peace and tranquility in my home (basically, The Girl was not up yet) while perusing some of my favorite blogs.  
I decided to spend a little time reading the archives of a blog I discovered a couple of months ago, as  I had only read the current posts.  
And I fell into deep like.
So much so that I wanted to call up Afrogeek Mom and ask her to become my new BFF (or at the very least, please, …
