I am just kind of hanging out. We slept late, a consequence of sitting up all night reading, and T headed to rehearsal at 1:30. I have spent part of the day on the Leaky Lounge, a place I have never really frequented. (LInks may contain spoilers) I contributed to a few discussions. Read what [...]

I was going to blog about words again, but I found something better. Fuse #8 pointed me towards a fabulous read. She picked one letter, but I liked another. Dear Editor: It is with frustration and disappointment that I inform you that I am canceling my subscription to Babybug following the April issue. I am [...]

I am joining Callapidder Day‘s Spring Reading Thing. I am a little behind in starting, but I am ready! I only just started Son of a Witch, so it will be my first book. I am not one who can read a whole bunch of books at a time. I will pick up my first [...]
