Is that a Sarah McLahlin (???) song?!?

The "Adia" part is obvious.

How is that obvious? (I'm probably blanking on something I *should* know.)

Not that I remember

I stopped giving blood because I always faint. Yes, I suck.

You faint from loss of blood or because you get sick at the sight of blood?

I've never had them test my blood iron levels when donating before. Of course, it's been a few years since I've given blood (can't do it anymore because of my annie) . . . .

You guys don't like "World on Fire"???? See, the only reason I know that song is because it was the theme song to that miniseries "Into the West" that I was hooked on 2 summers ago . . . I was even more moved by it when I found out she wrote it after 9/11 . . . .

If you do, let me know what you think! (I'm really excited to hear her sing "Merry Christmas (War is Over)") Look at me . . . gettin' into indy rock

Is anyone here a fan of Sarah McLaughlin? (Probably lots of folks!) I'm not all that familiar with her music but she has a Christmas album out . . . and I'm seriously thinking of getting it . . . or at least downloading a few tracks. I love love lover her song "World on Fire." That is one ...

I love amazon.com reviews . . .

I started reading Po Bronson's What Should I Do With My Life? again and I'm enjoying it a lot more than I was previously. I think that putting some distance between my reading and my listening to the audio version helped. (The author's voice and tone were SO annoying.) Fortunately, he only told abou...

I'm reading "The Joys of Much too Much" which is about having it all in life, and I'm feeling "enh" about it. :grumble Let me know what you think once you get to the end. I was thinking of reading that also, but it does look a little *too* light and fluffy - even for me! Is it i...

Whatcha readin???

Edited to add -- I am in between books right now . . . .

Out of curiosity, were any of you the victims of bullying in school?

Which do you prefer? Although they're more expensive, I do prefer hardcover books . . . because I read *everywhere* (on the metro, at the hair salon, etc., etc.) and keep my books in my purse, my softcover books always get jacked up. At least with hardcovers I can pull off the dust jacket, beat up t...

I'm getting ready to start The Color Purple. Can you believe that I've never read that book? (But I can quote the entire movie for you in my sleep!) UPDATE: I started the book last night and I'm really enthralled. It's interesting to get inside the mind of Celie as opposed to just watching her on th...

See, when a book is really good, I go through it super-quickly and then get mad/sad when it's over . . .

I'm about 50-80 pages from finishing my current book. (It's a "self-help" book about business/work habits.) I've been really into it for the past month or so . . . but now I'm just getting sick of it. I am going to finish it because I'm at the part that can actually help me *lol* but I'm s...

And do you know I stared at that smilie for a good 30 seconds . . . clicked on it . . . refreshed the page . . . then I scrolled down and read the rest of the post.

Whoa - serious threadjack. Oh well. It was entertaining while it lasted.

I like Blarf is the new black
