bye bye for a time.

it's been fun catching up on all my friends across the land, but it's time i move my brain from thinking about catchy one liners and updates, to things of importance. things that last, like close friends that actually talk to you face to face, yes, that means using the phone a bit more, and i HATE that phone, but i think this will be good, hard but good.

so goodbye Facebook for a while. we will see if i miss ya come 12 weeks from today. and i promise i'm not replacing you with laundry.... no worries about that.

13 Little Blue Envelopes

i work at the local library.. did i ever tell you that? i'm sure you figured it out somewhere on this journey we are taking. many times, no , in fact, lots of times young adult readers ask me for recommendations on good books. normally i don't read that genre. but since i consider it my job to point people away from really wasting their time on a bad book, i decided that i should in fact read a few.

so i picked this one up yesterday.

it's an alright read. the main character is Ginny, who has this dead aunt who is leading her across Europe with tasks that are found in these envelopes. it's a pretty simple plot and the characters aren't really developed (one of the main reasons i don't read young adults....) but all in all it was a great book.

the cover is REALLY misleading, which is sad, because Ginny talks a ton about wearing the wrong clothes that look touristy and how she hates that. but sex sells, even books, so they put a half naked chick on the cover.. sad.

i'd recommend this book for 14 or older, the tour you receive around Europe is worth the read.

ummm...

how do you tell a manly rooster from a girly one?

i'm not too proud to tell you that i have no clue.

i got me 8 ladies the post said.. but it SHOULD have said i have 7 ladies and one very very macho hairy man.. but i think maybe i wanted my lead singer to have that title??

but i was told if you want eggs, "you be needin a rooster".

my dreams were to have this vicious creature that hunts down things like he's in the mafia. but he's just well, not. he's a cutie, and really nice. which doesn't fit into my "i wanna rooster that will eat cats" theory. the cats in fact, could care less that this mean and nasty creature has taken up residence on this wanna be farm.

he is quite bashful. which is irritating to me in an odd way.

so this rooster he needs a name. and i'll entertain any that you pitch to me. and if i pick your name.. i'll send you a few cats as a prize. so make sure you enter often!!

your day.

today, i promise i won't holler at you to clean up your mess.

i will make you a cake.

i will let you grill steak and potatoes for dinner.

and let you watch 30 movies if you want.

it's your day... enjoy!

happy birthday to my forever and ever.
