      Oooo what have you got planned?

  7. Hi Mac :)

    How are you? Things are good here! Work is really busy but good, just keeps me off the boards more than I'd like!

    How are things w/you?

  8. Hi Jane! :) How are you? Thanks for the message!

    Yes, I am doing fine over here... just so busy with work and family visiting and all kinds of hooplah. :) All fun stuff, but I miss BCF! I've still been reading as much as I can, so am about to update my lists on here, and start a new book. :)

    How are things going w/you?

  9. Hi there!

    I had some time before work so went ahead and started the thread for ATSS .. You can reply whenever you want so you can get your hands on it first, and hopefully the ring will follow from there :) I did specify that it was for the US book ring in the thread title, to avoid confusion.

    If you want to post your Year of Wonders book in a thread as well, I thought it'd be less confusing than coming from me.. That way it's clear that it's your book and it will eventually make its way back to its rightful owner. :)

    Let me know if you have any questions, or if you need me to fix anything in my first thread.. Going to be a bit trial and error for me, I'm sure. :) But exciting!!

    (sorry if this a double msg for you -- The PM function wouldn't work for me for some reason!)

  10. Ok, sounds good! Tell them to leave me a message on my wall or send me a PM if they're interested. :) Then you can join in when you have a few bucks to spare! Hope you're doing well and looking forward to spring.. almost here..!

  11. Hi there! (Happy late birthday is in order, I see, by the way :) )

    Just dropping in to let you know I got my hands on my first Erica Spindler book (Copycat.. the only one the Center for Fiction here had), and LOVED it. Both you and Charm had rec'd me to her, so thanks to you guys! I'll definitely be trying some of her others.. was a great read. :)

  12. Wanted to let you know I got my hands on my first Erica Spindler book.. loved it! I read "Copycat".. the only one the Center for Fiction here had in. :) I will DEFINITELY read some of her others soon.. especially the one you recommended for me first! Off to tell Lexie the same thing.. she said she loved her as well and seconded your nom. :)

  13. Hi Sarah!

    Sooo... I wanted to see if you still have any interest in starting up a US book ring? I'm back now and have quite a few books I could add in to the mix. If you're interested, I'm volunteering to help you with it and we can make a go of it together, team-style. :) Lemme know, chica! xoxo

  14. Haha!! :D DEFINITELY were the days! I needed her to focus on more off-topic things.. no amount of distraction would do it, though. ;) You guys were too strong for me.

  15. You're more than welcome! :) Hope you're setting in nicely around here.. Let me know if you need anything or have any questions!

  16. Hi there :) Glad to have you unravel the mystery of the girl in the avatar! She's quite cute. :)

    Things are going well over here, despite being a bit under the weather this past week -- I'm feeling better today finally! The job is great -- I have my first networking event here in NYC coming up this week. Wish me luck! ;)

    xoxo.. Hope you're well and had a fun day bookshopping!

  17. Hi Mac!

    How in the world are ya?

    The holidays were great.. Now it's back to reality! Were your holidays good? Did you have lots of time off work?

    Who is the girl in the picture of your avatar? Ignore my ignorance.. ;)

  18. Not too much, Chuck! (hah.. only SORTA rhymed. ;) )

    How are ya? Thanks for checking in on me! I've been all over the place -- I went to St. Louis, MO to pick up my kitty cat from a friend that kept him while we were overseas.. and I got the ojb I was interviewing for, and started work this past Monday! So far so good.. It's still in recruiting/staffing that I've been in for so long, so it's a good fit hopefully. :) All is well over here!

    How are things on your side, buddy?

  19. Oooh glad to hear that after all!! Nice! :) I'll check out your review.. Thanks for letting me know!

  20. I'll keep plodding along. :) Thanks for the encouragement!

  21. Dear Gawd, shoot me now.. I have now sent out 18 resumes and haven't heard a word. Now I know SOME of those are going to places where I'm definitely either overqualified or under-qualified, but there's a bunch in the middle that are going places where I'd definitely expect I'd be called? I've never had trouble finding a job before at ALL, and I have to admit (humbly) that although it's not perfect, my resume is pretty strong. I'm going to start freaking out soon...

  22. Absolutely! I was going to do the same thing but you beat me to it ;)

  23. Bribe 'em.. Best method! :);)

  24. Hi Paula! :) How are ya??

    We are doing just fine over here.. all settled into our new home here in Manhattan, and now I'm working on the job search!

    What's going on over there? Anything exciting?

  25. Haha! Legoland! The things you can do to keep kids happy.. They are going to have a blast there. Everyone wins. :) Nice job!

    I hope his visit goes absolutely wonderful.. That is going to be such a nice break for you-- time off, kids at Legoland.. couldn't be better. :)
