Vixen

I read this book for my book club's April Book of the Month.  http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/3551.YA_Book_Club   Well... I must say that the first half of the book was cute but only so-so. The end of the book was great though! All of a sudden the story really took off. I have to say it was kinda daring for the author to talk about an interracial relationship that took place in the 1920s. I will be curious in future books to see just how accurate to history the author stays. At first I wasn't going to read the sequel but now I am for sure! ! I gave it three stars only because the first half of the book was a little but of slow.

Mrs Squirrel

Everyday Mrs. Squirrel comes to visit, lately she is getting so bossy!  She comes all day long now demanding food.  She will even climb the screen trying to get me to feed her!  But I must say it is so cute when she comes!!!!

My Spirit is Free

After a long 8 months living with a horrible roommate.. my life is free!  Last week felt soooo good.  My spirit felt good.  It's not that life was any different but I was just happy for the first time in a long time.  Thank God my life is back to normal!

friend

My so called "roommate" and I don't get along at all.  We don't speak, we don't even look at each other.  Frankly it pisses me off.  For a while there I would say hi everytime we saw each other (which is what my mom told me to do).  Then one day I thought I would test it and see if I said nothing if he would say anything.  Well the answer to that is no.  Nothing.  Straight walks past me.  I can't believe someone has the audacity to do this.  You live in my house for free, eat my food for free.  Oh yea you've started paying a little money lately only because I told you to.  You are moving out only because I told you to.  But I don't care if I EVER see or talk to you again!  Seriously.  He has never respected me since he moved into this house.  Has never tried to get involved with anything.  For a while there I thought it might be me... so I kept making effort after effort of just getting along for a few days.. and then to be let down again.  So then I made a list... which is advice that is always given to people.  And I just don't see how the relationship failure is mine.  I mean I specifically asked you to simply clean the bathroom every two weeks.  Vacuum your room once a week, and clean your sheets every two weeks.  Totally ignored.  So I have to do it.  I don't care if this seems like harsh cleaning.  It is what I do and you are in my house.  When you FINALLY go..... I hope to not have to see you again.  I don't wish you ill... but I do wish you to stay out of my life!

Home

Haven't blogged in a while.  Funny that when blogging I try to think of something inspirational or smart sounding to write about.  For example... I have a friend on facebook who always writes the best posts!  Here are a couple....

I can't stand it when people misuse their, there, and they're, where, and were, to, too, and two. On that note, there is also a vast difference between saying dunno instead of don't know, and misusing the words to/too. The word "to" is a preposition/part of an infinitive, whereas "too" means also, or tambien for our ...Spanish speakers. These small illiteracies can make one seem illiterate... Happy Sunday!!

 

I may be the least observant person on the planet. When some people give directions they use landmarks as a directional indicator, "Oh yeah it's next to the furniture store by the bakery." I could live next door to these places for years and not know. I'll drive home and ask myself "When did they build that?" I could ...be sitting in a lawn chair, in the dead center of a construction site, and probably not even notice.

 

Does anyone really like the yellow Starburst? I mean the orange Starburst is already pushing it. And every time someone wants to bum one from you, you conveniently delve out the yellow one. It's the same with Skittles. No one really wants the yellow or green and somehow the package is always full of those. I'm guessin...g the price on red food coloring is higher. It's hard to "taste the rainbow" when there is none...

 

My posts are never that fabulous!  I read read read yet I can't write for anything!
