Talk Healthy

Are you guys even remotely embarrassed that you read Wil Wheaton's blog? :dweeb :kiss Yes . . . which is why I only tell a select few members of the Nerd Brigade. I have had a crush on him since Stand By Me. Don't ask why - I can't explain it either. :shrug I'm only just now adjusting to the fact t...

I can't think of any good answers to this poll, except for "hawesome", which Wil Wheaton has started using in his blog lately, and which is driving me up the wall every time I read it. Luckily it hasn't spread to real life. I noticed that, too! And it drives me insane! Almost as bad as wh...

In general I am very big on grammar and I hate, hate, hate it when people use the wrong parts of speech, noun-verb combinations don't match, etc.

I'm srue there are others, but I can't think of them right now. Hrmm . . .

Whoops

Well, I was really excited to read it but it's just not written in a style that pulls me in y'know?

I'm reading Strapped: Why America's 20- and 30-Somethings Can't Get Ahead by Tamara Draught. It's not griping me like I thought it would, but I'm only on the first chapter, so there's still time.

WTF is her problem? Is she just not adjusting well to Bo's new life? Why aren't they talking? This is so strange!

I love those remaindered books!!!

Whoa - are you getting into that, Annie?

(Or, have you been into it all along and I never noticed? )

In a store - Strapped.

Online - Do You Think I'm Beautiful?

What about you?

I haven't read it

Would anyone like to lend it to me?

I am reading a fantastic book called Somebody's Someone by Regina Louise - it's a memoir of a black girl growing up in foster care in the South. This is one of those so-good-you-miss-you-train-stop books!

Read out book club book!

See, I didn't mind "The Nanny Diaries." I don't have very high expectations of chicklit. I read it because it's fluff. I much prefer someone who writes chicklit for what it is, rather than trying to cram too much depth into it. (Jennifer Weiner, I'm looking at you. :grumble ) :shrug I kno...

when is it "due"?

Yikes - I actually heard that the nanny diaries wasn't all that, either.

For me, I'm looking forward to reading . . .

The Year of Yes, Strapped, and, of course, Aly's recommendation - Give It Up!

What about you?

Wow - I've heard of that . . . I love sign language and I think I'd like to try that with my kids (y'know, when I have some)!

Wait, Keira knows sign language????
