...for this "holy crap I'm addicted" book post. Let's talk about three things: Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse. People, I got the first book a week ago (they're easy reads, but short they are not--500 to 600 pages each) and within an hour of f...

Books, booksy booksy books.

Hey! I've been reading! It's that delightful time at the library when ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPENS and one is able to spend the better part of a shift reading. ...I LOVE IT SO MUCH. So, as if you cared, and as if I was actually maintaining what ...

Mmm books.

My astonishing lack of concern for school this semester (at least, relative to previous semesters) has given me much more time to read. A quick post about what I have read or am reading: I generally prefer to read books before seeing the movie,...

Travis; Travel; Trillions of cats.

And now it's time for an excellent band: Travis. I'm much too lazy to bother posting a thoughtful, well-worded description of the band and their style. I'm even too lazy to post a sample song. But I'm not too lazy to tell you I dig this band v...

More excitement over HP.

Okay, after skimming through some old Vox-ness, I've discovered that Vox has a nifty way to block out spoilers. But I'm so paranoid about ruining things for other people that I'll just take my cue from vintagefury and use page numbers. For Joie'...

Oh. Em. Gee.: Aitch. Pee.

...Seriously: How do you spell out the letter "H"? I didn't feel that titling this post "OMGHP" would adequately describe my overwhelming excitement. ANYWAY. I realize I'm a week behind all the other fans, but I'm glad I took the time to rer...

As you know, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is mere hours away. Hours, I say. I still haven't even finished the fifth book. I'm just OCD enough to be determined to finish the 5th and 6th books before doing 7. I'm sure someone will spoil ...

One fabulous perk of working at the library is that when shelving books or DVDs, I tend to find unexpected goodies that interest me. While putting some DVDs away today, I found this: I've always been fascinated by birds of prey (especially red-t...

Oy.

When I first got my Gmail account (way back in March of '05, it seems), I apparently took the whole "Search, don't sort" thing quite literally. The only things I delete with regularity are e-mails from Myspace (due to their abundance and pointles...

The Silent Miaow.

nobody@vox.com(Joie) — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 21:43:28 -0500

I decided to take a break from reading to make myself some deliciousness (chicken and mashed potatoes!--out of a bag and a box respectively, but who cares, it's still cookin'). While waiting for the oven to preheat, I decided to diddle around on ...
