I'm feeling so cranky today. I don't think I'm actually acting that cranky, especially for me but I am feeling it. I even put "stop being cranky" on my to do list. 

In other news I was trying to convince a guy friend to give The Vampire Diaries a try. He loves vampire and werewolf stuff. He had heard of it but thought it looked too girly for him. Girly? This is from a man who loves the Twilight movies!  He says he'll give it a try. We shall see.

I got this in the mail the other day:

I won it in a giveaway and it's signed by the author! Awesome :)

In other news here is where I am at with my 2012 word count:
And here are a couple of recent pictures of Kitsune under the cut...( Read more... )

I'm still doing the 100 Breakfasts thing. Though I'm not doing it everyday. I do try and do it most days. The idea is to photograph my breakfasts for 100 days within 2012. Low pressure and all that :)

The writing thingy is going more slowly than I'd like. Yesterday didn't help when I burned the tip of my finger with hot oil. Yeah not fun! It isn't too bad today. Hopefully I can do dishes again. Typing isn't too bad with a band aid to pad my finger. It was not my day in the kitchen last night at all. I should have gotten more sleep. I was pretty much useless the whole day.





I'm still doing the Month of Letters thingy. Though it's been more a month of postcards on my end here. I'm caught up today. But if you want mail you can still add your address here. You don't need to send me anything back. I do need more addresses.

I even joined:

I was so desperate for more people to send stuff to!

I seem to have slowed down on the reading thing this month. I've only got a couple novels, a short ebook and a short story. I read the short story that TV show Justified is based on. It was pretty neat. It was pretty much the pilot with some minor differences in character ages and background and one major difference in the ending.


and here is a picture of Kitsune...

The thing I don't like about getting books out of the library, especially getting too many books out at a time is that I feel like I don't have a choice in what to read next. I have to keep in mind due dates and can't just go with mood unless I want to deal with late fees or returning books unread.

There are usually some books I end up returning unread anyway and then I end up getting them again another time. Sometimes only to send them back unread again.

I would prefer to buy all of the books I want but that would be a crazy insane number of books and I just can't afford to do that. I can't even read all that I want to read either. There just aren't enough hours in the day when there are so many good books out there.

In January...

I wrote 6,780 words of fiction.

Over at 750words.com I wrote on 29 days (missed 2) and wrote 23,009 words. This sounds more impressive but it was mostly just personal blathering.

I hoping to see that word count jump in February and I hope not to miss any days at 750words.com this time. 

possibly an addiction...

These are the fiction books I have out from the library right now (minus three that aren't in this pile):



Yeah, I don't know. But I can't seem to be able to help myself. I should be reading the books I have here but no...I keep getting more and more out of the library because I WANT ALL THE BOOKS!!!

*sigh*

At least I have plenty to read ;)
