I absolutely love books!

Always buying books. Can't go into a bookstore without purchasing at least one. Used books, etc.

My favorite books, are based on the paranormal, thrillers, medical thrillers, psychological thrillers, holy grail type books, and the armageddon type. I also enjoy book thrillers based on science, (dna,... more »

    How close to graduating are you? I've been really bad at reading this year, it actually makes me kind of sad because I enjoy reading so much and I know there are tons of books I need and want to read but I get easily distracted by other things. What movies are you looking forward to catching up on?

    Indeed. I have to keep reminding myself that I'm lucky to have 2 jobs. A friend of mine who lives in Portland has a job that he can do 10-20 hours a week and all at home. Gets paid well for it too. This sounds like an ad, but seriously I think I might apply for it. I'm sick of not having enough money.

    I did. We saw The Glass Menagerie, Noises Off, Richard III, and The Music Man. I don't know if I'll go next year or not, we'll be going to Pacific Grove (which is in Monterrey) and Disneyland. That'll be a lot by itself.

    Yeah, when I've finished a good number of books I come back, update my shelf, see if anyone has anything interesting to say about some of the series I'm reading. Hope I catch you sooner than later, it's always great hearing from you.

    No worries. 3 weeks since you wrote this and I still haven't responded? Ridiculous! What are you going to school for? Bachelor's or Graduate school? That's okay, I probably see more movies than I should, but I just love them so much and they're a big part of my vocabulary I guess. Since you sent this a while ago, what all have you been watching/reading? My new job is soulless but pays well and it has some other perks that compensate for the boredom. Graduating was nice. Been over a year now since that happened. Weird. I'm leaving Sunday for southern Utah and the Shakesperean Festival, then hiking in Zion's National Park. Few weeks after that, Comic Con International in San Diego. I'm rather sad really that I've just dropped this site but you know how it is, it's difficult to do a bunch of things effectively so I generally stick to a small number and do really well on those.

    Well, I've been working, and working and drawing and painting a little bit, mostly drawing and reading. I'll be moving out soon and turning 30. Ummm...work is okay, hopefully I'll be able to retain my insurance through my second job or I'm gonna be in trouble Just saw Tangled this last Friday and really enjoyed it. Not a perfect film, but a great film for Disney who has been having problems with their own animated films and doing better with Pixar. What's new with you?

    I finally finished God Delusion--no slight to Dawkins it took me so long, simply too many distractions these days. Irrespective, it was a compelling read. Dawkins is brilliant, and he's done his homework. Patiently, systematically, comprehensively, he dismantles the tenets of religion and faith until there's nothing left standing. And importantly, he replaces it with a credible and logical Humanism that all people of every religion can embrace toward a better world. Not for the self-righteous or closed-minded, but for everyone else, mandatory reading.

    Oh me too on D'Onofrio. Wow he really let himself go there at the end. Still love me some Det. Bobby Goren though. I never got around to watching the last season that he was on, I need to do that so I can catch up and find out what they did with his character. Goldblum's all right in the show, I guess

    Quebec? No we were thinking of British Columbia, if I am cued into the right allusion. Anyway, Victoria, BC is kind of dead in the water right now. Too expensive and not warm enough. Perhaps Mexico, Cuba, Brazil, or Portugal are on the horizon. Jeez, we should all have such tough choices. I hope you enjoy the Turow book, since you asked me to let you know if I liked it. His characters are so finely drawn, I really marvel at the subtleties he is able to reveal. Your travel jar sounds like my job jar :-)

    The Stand is one of my very favorite books. I have read it several times. I love the characters. Sometimes I am a little like Larry Underwood, but I think most of the time, I am like Stu Redman. The story never gets old.

    I'm reading Evil at Heart right now, about halfway through. It's good. There's going to be a fourth??? Nice!

    Gretchen's unbelievably evil; she reminds me somewhat of the character Nicole Wallace on Law & Order: Criminal Intent. Did you ever watch the series? Archie kind of reminds me of LAPD Det. Hieronymus (Harry) Bosch in Michael Connelly's books. Both are kind of the troubled, lone wolf sort of detective.

    Oh no! And look at me again, not replying to you. What a jerk. You do that workout, girl! I've just gained access to a workout room at my 2nd job and my co-worker has agreed to help me do some strength and toning work.

    Ahhh...I would, as much as possible...ignore everything you've heard about the books and the movies. Have you seen the movies? I didn't but I won't say why. Don't read any reviews, any descriptions, nothing. Total blank slate. Then read it. I'm not going to tell you anything because it's better for you to have your own impressions of it. I liked Twilight, that's all I will say. No ands ifs or buts.

    The Monster in Florence? What is that? I'm reading another vampire book and Mary Barton right now. Sorry you haven't found your book. I know that can be super frustrating.

    Aren't you lucky, a note from Victor. I'm back in the North Country. Reading a lot right now since it's calm and hot. Enjoying two of Scott Turow's courtroom dilemmas, Limitation and Reversible Errors. Last winter was fun in Florolda, but the weather wasn't that good. Lots of sight seeing and kiting though. Hopefully the East coast will escape the Spill effects. This winter we are going to Vancouver Island for three months. Lots of family stuff this year. Weddings, births, etc.. lol. Looks like you are reading some historical stuff. One of my favorites. Hope you are well.
