A Quick Update to my Supporting the Library challenge
I’m reading up a storm! Okay, so maybe it’s only a tropical storm, and no Category 5 hurricane. But, I’m making progress, slowly but surely. To pick up where I left off last time, I’ve finished #17, #18 and #19 on the list. Plus, a few more [...]

Since the browser in which I do most of my blogging has been crashing on me every time I enter it, I’ve taken the opportunity to catch up on some of my reading. I’ve even joined GoodReads, to help organize what I’m reading and I’ve read. It’s while updating my current reading status that I [...]

Recently, I was tagged with the name meme by a friend on Facebook. I got such a kick out of it that over to my blog it had to come. Consider yourself forewarned on this one: it’s a tricky bugger to play depending on your name. One of my friends (of whom I tagged) called [...]

Dear NaBloPoMo,
Hah! I’ve conquered you once again. We’ve had a whole month of posting with the letters theme. Actually, I have one to boot. Double-score! And, those of you thought I could not do it…*sticks tongue out and singsongs laughter at you: ”hah-ha-hah-ha-haa-haa!”* Seriously, I’ve enjoyed this theme, and appreciate Eden / NaBloPoMo for getting me into this mess, even [...]

X is for exhausted, phonetically speaking. It appears we’re consumed with sleep on this planet, and the human race cannot get enough of it. Whether one has the ability to “power nap” -as both the democratic politicians claim to do-, or choose to sleep for longer periods (remember doctors saying it should be eight hours?), [...]

Somebody, make me a loaf of bread…whoops, too late, I already am one. Hah! I have been tired today, though I am not sure why. Sleep, yes…that’s covered. An easy day, I spent just kind of loafing (putting off bills/demands today - shh, they’ll hear us). It’s going to be an interesting time to make up today, but [...]

Yes, the title is a vague Monty Python reference, but not for the reason you may be thinking.
