*ears perk*
Colin Firth?

I just remembered there's this rather appropriate pic on here already of me and I thought I'd post it on here:
Haha! I love it! <3 That was on your Aussie trip, right?
-
I just got back from the bookstore with The Madness Underneath, coffee and A MOJO FOR READING!
*goes off to enjoy*
-
When I think of you I picture you as a little monster (like Cookie Monster) devouring books (like Cookie Monster did cookies!)
Have you thought about another trip to Australia to...*cough* get more books?
And visit Kylie, of course...
And pet a wallaby...
((How did you get all your books back home last time?))

I don't have many recent photos of myself. Here's a photo of me (and one of our dogs, Pamuk) (you've already seen this one, frankie) from last June:
That's such a good picture! You're lovely and your dog looks like a sweetheart! <3
-
Heh, they sure are a handful! There is one more who isn't pictured, too. One house, 4 large dogs.
-
That would be THE perfect job for you! Hopefully you find something soon! I totally understand the 'looking for work' bit. I quit my job back in November after burning out hard. I start a part time job this week and am hoping its the right move for now.
Anyway... I really do need to read more. This book that's coming out today is part of the only series I've been truly excited about in a long time.
-
I don't really have any good pictures of me... so here's one of my family's dogs instead: K.D., Rookie and River

Frankie! *tacklehugs*
It was just 5 shelves so all in all, not *too* many. One shelf was old ARCs I'd been wanting to give away for a while that I'd gotten for free working for the bookstore. Actually, most of the books I got rid of were ones I got for cheap or free. Room for more now.
I've been around... just felt bad coming on here when I was in such a (lack of) reading funk. How have you been? What are you up to these days?
-
Maureen Johnson's The Madness Underneath comes out today and I keep willing the clock to tick faster so I can go get it when the store opens. I can't wait to tuck in and spend the rest of the day reading it! Feels like its been forever since I finished a book the same day I bought it. Should be a good day.
Did I mention I have a 20% off coupon, too?

Glad you had a great trip, Laura!
Yesterday I went to a craft show with a friend. 3 floors each packed with booths and people! I managed to get out having only bought a beautiful leather cuff bracelet (with french writing and a gold and black broach on it) and a navy and light yellow bird printed scarf. I love my new shinies!
-
You really should! The movies are great but the books are even better. I'm American so some of the Brit slang/terms throw me off, but Bridget is just such a lovable character!
-
Welcome to AW, JK!
-
Sort of... I have been unemployed since the middle of November and have spent the past few months making and selling jewelry and writing. Its been a bit of a rough patch but a necessary one.
-
Having a lot of fun making jewelry and knitting today. Maybe it's the coffee but I just can't seem to stop smiling.
-
Yuck! I hope they got things fixed quickly!
-
I'm hoping to finish Bridget Jones's Diary today so I can re-read Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson before the 2nd in the series comes out.
-
I found a few more books on another shelf that I'd like to read before selling them:
The Lady Elizabeth by Alison Weir
Scarpetta by Patricia Cornwall
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeline L'Engle
Sundays at Tiffany's by James Patterson
-
Its still freezing cold here but I'm debating getting out of the apartment for a little while, even if just for a coffee and drive around town. Now that I 'work from home' I'm always itching for an excuse to get out for a little bit.
-
Hey Devi! Of course I remember you! Nice to see both you and Andrea again.
-
They really made the story. We Americans find kangahoppits really amusing.
Aww, she did? Michelle couldn't have found two better book nuts
*shines halo*
I'm always good
*hides horns*

Hey Athena! Nice to meet you This forum is a good one and it's nice to be back. Hope we get a chance to chat some around the threads!
Yay! Welcome back, Abby! I've missed you.
Aww, I missed you, too, Kylie! I thought about you the other day when I was watching the women's golf tournament in Australia and saw all those kangaroos take over the course! Best golf tournament I've seen.

I thought you'd be shorter (like ME!) Frankie!
Lovely pictures, everyone! <3
