i'm back!!

hello everyone! so i'm back...not that it means anything since this is my second post ;) haha so things that i've been up to since my first post. i'm still a twenty something, but no longer a college student =( had to drop out in order to work more. only problem is that no one is hiring. got really lucky and my old boss rehired me. great, huh? it was until the budget cuts. i knew it was coming but it still sucks to know that i will yet again be out of a job at the end of the month. please keep your fingers crossed that i find a new job soon.


as for my reading, i've gotten into quite a few new series. for example: Stephanie Plum, Mythos Academy, Ranger's Apprentice, and the Brotherband Chronicles. i've just started the Stephanie Plum books and i'm loving every minute of it!! no doubt that my next posts will just be full of funnies from the book i'm reading at that time. you'll be lucky to get any updates about my RL ;) lol  single books: Baby Steps by Kally Sten and Underwood & Flinch by Mike Bennett. Underwood & Flinch is a vampire novel that started out as a podcast and was performed by the author. its a great story and Mike did an amazing job acting out every chapter. it will be available in print soon if your interested. i am going to buy the print version but i'm going to miss hearing Mike's voice.


okay so here's a funny...its bit long so bare with me. this is from To the Nines by Janet Evanovich, pages 143-144 of the paper back edition. a little background: Lula is Stephanie's friend, co-worker, sometimes wheel man, and ex ho. she's big black woman, that loves to show everything her mama gave her in clothes to sizes too small ;)

"I moseyed over to the door, looked up the street, and spotted Lula at the end of the block. She was walking fast in her Via Spiga heels, holding a white food bag against her chest. Two dogs, a beagle and a golden retriever, trotted close behind Lula. A third dog crossed the street and joined the pack. Every couple of steps Lula wold turn and yell something at the dogs. When the beagle jumped for the bag with Lula was half a block away, Lula let out a shriek and started running.
"Stop runnning," I yelled at her. "You're making worse. They think it's a game."
They were snapping at her heels now and barking.
"Do something," Lula yelled. "Shoot them!"
"Drop the bag! They want the bacon."
"No way I'm giving up my bacon."
Lula was running knees high, arms pumping. She was wearing the Via Spigas and a short black spandex skirt that was hiked up to her waist, and showing Hamilton Avenue what a big woman looks lik in a red stain thong."

 i was at the bus stop when i read this & just busted out laughing. i cried, i was laughing so hard...i bet the other people at the stop thought i was one of the crazies! haha if this doesn't get you reading the series, i don't know what will :)


so that is it for me for....until next time!
