1. I was born in Iowa, some say we’re Idiots Out Walking Around. 2. I’ve lived in 2 states, Nebraska & Missouri and in 3 cities Rock Port, Omaha and E-town. 3. I was napping one time when I was 3 & my brother stuck a key up my nose. 4. I have an older brother and a younger sister. 5. I a step...
Lil did this first, Molly then got her hands on it. So I shall do my damage to it, because what's a meme without the added indignity of a haphazard blogger heeding it. Using the list below, bold all the titles that you’ve read. If you’ve read other titles by the same author, add them under that...

What's your morning beverage of choice? Coffee, tea, juice? Homemade or store-bought? I like how this Question feels the need to give examples of morning beverages, as though someone might mistakenly write "eggs and toast" or "blue." In any event, this is a squishy Nerf ball of a question, which is...
So, the dreaded day has come. On the one hand, it got me out of hiding! On the other, the PINK everywhere was SUFFOCATING. A lot of things have changed since summer. For one, my friends have extended, though my social shell is uncrackable. I am now prepared for High School(got all my courses...
So.. my argument for homosexual Christian relationships makes it sound like that is the only type of "correct homosexuality".. eh.. see the previous post for more on that. I'm also one that's commited herself to no premarital sex. So.. yes, I'm insane. Oh my logic.. at the moment it escapes me. So.....
Those of you who are around my age may remember Benji, the "lovable mutt who had an uncanny knack for being in the right place at the right time, usually helping a person overcome a problem." Ah, Joe Camp. You creative genius, you. I've had a stuffed animal in the likeness of Benji almost as long as...
Black Boy, Native Son, and The Outsider are all common high school and college required reads, but that doesn't mean you should grab the Cliff's Notes and never glance at a page of one of Richard Wright's famous and influential works. All three of these are very worthwhile reads, even for people who...

The Novel 100 is one man's ranking of the 100 greatest novels ever written. I'm a sucker for a list. I love to mark progress by checking stuff off. Given my poor memory, lists are the only way I can remember to do anything. I liked this list so much, I went out and bought the book. The author,...
Except not really. I had a vox blog for a while. It was titled "Where's My Mr.Darcy" and I chronicled my dating shenanigans and then I got a boyfriend. Ironically enough, me and my man didn't even date. We just jumped right into a serious relationship. 7.5 months later we're still not driving each...
"She began now to comprehend that he was exactly the man, who, in disposition and talents, would most suit her. His understanding and temper, though unlike her own, would have answered all her wishes. It was an union that must have been to the advantage of both;by her ease and liveliness, his mind...
First off, I have some suggestions for our Superblog, if you're maybe stumped on what to write about. And don't give me any excuses about having oodles of work or being in a foreign company, because I don't buy it. Nothing should come between a girl and her fashion blog. So, possible topics: --Why...
Oh I know I got someone's attention with that title. Well, he is on Spike Feresten, the talk show after MADtv. It's gonna be like the next Jimmy Kimmel. ..who knows. I attended the Orange County Badminton Tournament (CIF-HL) thing. On the way to AHS for the bus ride, Guadalupe and I went to -11, I...

Virginia Woolf was born today, in 1882. If you've never met, I hope you'll acquaint yourself with one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century. You will not be the same for having known her. Virginia Stephen Woolf was born into a distinguished family of English "intellectual aristocracy,"...
From this post, a list of what are considered the 100 best novels, and a question as to how many of them people have read. I don't often go for lists, and I agree that it's hard to decide what constitutes "greatest." But I thought I'd give it a try nonetheless. I actually own a lot of the ones I...
Here are my selections from the list - the bolds ones being the ones I have read and the italicised ones being the ones I've never heard of. I think I have done quite poorly so have highlighted in red the ones that I do own in the hopes of getting my score up. Rank Title Year Author 1 Don Quixote...
