2 squirrels and 178 days later...

First things first...Happy Birthday to my baby sister (Love you scampers :o) and Detective Carlton Lassiter (aka Lassie)!!

Now on to the blogging....

We have blown past the midway point of 2010 so it's time for the annual New Year Resolution review.

My twenty-ten resolutions were:

1. Move out of my parents house
2. Reach my goal weight by my 25th birthday
3. Write my novel
4. Save more, Spend less

The half way review is:
1. Check!! Holla!!
2. Just turned 24 so I've still got time but I am well on my way.
3. Working on it, not going as well as I would like, however I am planning on taking a creative writing class this fall.
4. Yeeaaah about that....

So far so good, high fives all around.

I'd like to introduce you all to Cory Pete and Eric Pete.


I found these two little guys lying on the ground out by my office's parking lot. The nest was in pieces next to them.  I wrapped them in a towel, placed them in a box and took them to a wild life rescue. As of a few days ago they were healthy and happy at their new home. And yes they are squirrels. Save the baby squirrels!!!

This marker smells like grapes...& now my work to-do list does too.


Since this is my first entry and I have no idea what I want to write about I am just going to bombard you with random musings, news and whatever else may pop into my head during the blogging process.

Obviously I am doing this instead of work, it's not my fault my brain has already left on my vacation taking my attention span and work ethic with it.

Might as well talk about what I can't stop thinking about....Inception and JGL (aka Joseph Gordon-Levitt).

Let’s start with the less creepy of the two, Inception was PHENOMENAL.
 If you are planning on spending an obscene amount of money on a movie this weekend my advice to you is to spend it on Inception. Great special effects, unbelievable acting, suspenseful, fun, action packed, insightful script, just add a bag of gummy bears from Wawa (cause bob knows I'm not about to spend 20 bucks on a chewy teddy) and you are set my man. I would say that this was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. 4 stars on the Happy Happy Joy Joy meter.

And now let’s move into creepville, JGL was HOT in this movie. If he can, he should dress like a 50's gangster all the time. I always thought he was cute but I never thought of him as sexy and damn was I wrong. Since my body is stuck at work with no attention span or work ethic I spent my day researching this bodacious boy (shh don't tell the boss). I found hitRECord.org. This is a project he had started a little over 5 years ago and has since "evolved into a professional open collaborative production company." (JGL, hitRECord.org) If I made or knew how to make mini movies I would be all over this site like white on rice, as it is I don't but I'm still going to pass it on to you lovely people. Anyhoo, if you get the chance to check out this site make sure you watch Morgan M. Morgansen's Date with Destiny and Morgan and Destiny's Eleventeeth Date - The Zeppelin Zoo. I suggest paying close attention to the narration; I thought that was the best although the art is amazing too. Front Pillows... haha classic.

Well it's Hump day and you know what that means...PSYCH

Yup that's right Wednesday nights are Psych nights, one of the best shows on tv, or at least I think so. In tonight's episode Shawn and Gus take on aliens with the help of guest star Freddy Prince Jr. It's gonna be awesome.

Book Nook

If you haven't figured it out yet I am 100% a honest to bob book worm, so this section is dedicated to anything and everything literary world related.

Moving right along, my favorite author Rosemary Clement-Moore has officially posted her next book on goodreads.com. At the moment it's titled Texas Gothic and it's due to be published sometime in June 2011 but there is a plot summary and that alone should be enough to hold me over until then.

Jealousy (Strange Angels #3) by the sassy Lilith Saintcrow comes out TOMORROW!! Like the self proclaimed dork that I am I have already pre-ordered it on my Nook :o) and plan on spending the weekend reading it whilst lounging on the beach.

Since I'm blogging illegally (on company time) I have no time to do some serious book news searching so that will be all for today.

Well it's almost quittin' time so until tomorrow stay cheerful my friends.
