I have a confession...

I have not read any of the books in the Harry Potter series. I have not been living under a rock either. LOL! My father and sister have read them all and just love them! I decided I needed to read them to find out if they're really THAT good! My mom said she pulled them all together for me but couldn't find the first book! I'm bummed... I was looking forward to reading them but I can't start with the second one, right??!

For the love of books!

While reading what Brandy's been up to over at It's like I'm... mmmagic! I found a great blog that she contributes to called Book me in!. I had to check it out and it's great! It has a lot of reviews on books that I have already read and some that are on my "to be read" shelf. I have always wanted to join a book club and I thought this would be perfect!

There was a comment on the blog about looking for more contributers, so I figured, why not??

I'm so excited, I just hope my writing can live up to the great reviews that everyone else has written! I plan on writing my first review on Jodi Picoult's most recent release, "Change of Heart". (at least that is the plan so far!)

Go check it out!

Cat names

Here are some names that I have been thinking about:

Isabelle

Belle or Bella

Chanel ( I have always thought that would be so cute!)

Libby

Pearl

Sassy

Stella

Fiona

I have the kitty and I did choose one of these names. Although I am not going to say which one, because I'm curious which ones ya'll like! :)

I'm late! I'm late! For a very important date!

Not really, just work. haha!

I decided I needed DVR. I have had it before with Timewarner when I lived in KC, as well as TiVo (which is amazing by the way) and I decided I needed it again! When I first moved in I requested it but there was a wait on the boxes so they said they would call me in a month when they came in. They didn't call. I thought "oh well, I'm living without, I'll be fine without it."

After a while though I got sick of rushing home for the programs I so desperately HAD to see! (haha!) So, I called Mediacom Sunday to order it... and lo and behold... I have been paying for it since November and I didn't even have the service! AARGH!!!

Now they were scheduled to come out today between 7:30 and 10 am. Guess what time they show up? 9:30. I'm a little peeved. I have to get to work! If I was my boss I wouldn't consider the "cable guy" a necessary excuse to be late for work! Maybe I'm just a tough boss... hmm??

The guy is still here and I"m really late to work. I have a phobia about being late. I hate it.

Ugh, hopefully he's almost done.
