Tagged!

I’ve been tagged by tanyaleestone, but I did this on my bananagirl journal–I’m just going to copy the answers from there. 😀

Ground Rules: The first player of this “game” starts with the topic “5 weird habits of yours” and people who get tagged need to write a LJ entry about their 5 quirky habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 5 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. I like to play with earlobes, but they have to be the non-connected kind. Luckily, Aidan and Chris both have detached earlobes.

2. I can play Boggle on the computer for HOURS.

3. I will latch onto a favorite food and eat it over and over and over and over and over.

4. I love writing, but sometimes I avoid doing it because it’s so emotional and draining–but also because it’s weird to be feeling so much joy when I’m doing something.

5. I obsess over songs. If I find a favorite, I will listen to it ever and over and over and over.

Tagging: WHOMEVER!!! Have fun! 😀

I Went to the Library Yesterday

/ books, music, writing

So…

I’d originally gone to pick up Twilight which I’d had on reserve. Yesterday was the last day I could get it, and their is a list a mile long, so I knew I HAD to go yesterday or else I’d lose it for a long time.

I left with 14 items. Many of them CDs, but the rest were BOOKS. Seriously, it’s like a SICKNESS. One of the guys at the circulation desk saw me struggling with my goodies and asked me if I needed a bag. HA HA HA. I’m excited because I got Gingerbread and Shrimp by Rachel Cohn, two books I’d been wanting to read for a while. I hate taking books out of the library if I can’t have the entire series at once. So I grabbed them both when I saw them. Dude, they have like 20454857849578 copies of Pop Princess now. And another copy of Second Helpings. I know they have another because I have one of them at home.

Does anyone recommend the Mediator series by Meg Cabot? I see them a lot, but I haven’t been able to bring myself to picking one up because I’m not sure if I care for the suspenseful stuff so much. What do you think?

Ahem.

I went home, worked a bit on my writing, ate three pieces of chocolate chip cookie dough, and promptly fell asleep. I slept until 1am, when I got up, grabbed a shower, and then finished reading My Cup Runneth Over. Oh my goodness, what an adorable book. It’s full of doodles, and the MC’s voice is so cute!! The ending was nice too. Very sudden, but I didn’t mind it at all. Maybe because I have the sequel sitting right on my nightstand.

Then I went back to sleep. I am looking forward to going home again. It’s so nice when no one else is there except the cats, the fish, and myself. And LOTS and LOTS of books.

Tomorrow, I am taking the day off. I’m going to sleep in, take a shower, then get a 90 minute massage. Mmmmm. Then I’ll spend the rest of the day writing/reading/indulging/pretending that my life is always that way. I also get Monday off. Woo-Hoo. Four days of writing YES LORD. I can’t wait. My WIP is getting complicated and I know that I’m fighting the process on purpose because it’s going to get emotional and hard. But I have to push through and do it. I have to. And I will. I’ll come out battered and broken, but at least I’ll have a novel that’s even closer to being completed.

Gosh, could this entry have been anymore random??

Have a good day! :)
