I read yet another “light reading, vacation book!” The Nanny Diaries: A Novel by Emma Mclaughlin and Nicola Kraus was a quick and enjoyable read. This book was also a little sad because it makes you think of “career” families/people and what you could potentially miss out on by not choosing to raise [...]

I finally finished The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (Widescreen Edition) DVD. I had paused it for several day… but finally got back to finishing it up yesterday. I’d skip this movie, but I can see why children love it, who doesn’t love a talking lion? :) [...]

Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World’s Worst Dog by John Grogan is definitely a beach read! This book was hilarious, as in ‘laugh out loud’ hilarious. I loved it! It reminded me of our dogs growing up, and how mischievous and horrible they could be, but also how amazing they are. Now [...]

Como se dice “fun”? :) What a cool place… I love Mexico! Now I just need to plan my next trip! :)

I found the coolest free software for this! It’s not pretty, but it’s still really fun and I got 100% on the European countries game (finally)! It’s called Seterra. I like the maps version and the flags. Oh what fun! This will definitely be an on-going project of nerdiness.
The List:
Europe
North America
South America
Asia
Africa
Australasia

*UPDATE: I found [...]

I cleaned out 73% of my computer last week… so this isn’t officially finished. Now I just need to backup some of my files, get rid of the beast of a monitor, and possibly use it as a media PC of sorts… to be continued I suppose. :(

My first issue of The Economist arrived last week! Officially my second favorite magazine (Wired is still #1). It’s a weekly magazine, so I’m still wondering if I’ll have [make] the time to read each one. They do have an audio version, so that should help. I’ll probably listen to it in the [...]

I unintentionally started off #56 while on vacation. I started with A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby. For some reason I thought this was the book full of short stories, but it ended up being about suicide. In hindsight I really don’t think a book about suicide is the lightest and most fun beach [...]

I’m crossing all the easy stuff off my list first! #34 is officially done, and doesn’t require much explanation! I stocked up on the 5 for $25 PINK underpants. Although I love all the bright colors, their strategy of slowly shifting to capture the pre-teen market is kind of scary, but rather brilliant. And what’s [...]

Monday… check! Tuesday… ugggh, I had to like, start over. Yeah…..
