I’ve started my very own Review Blog! It’s pretty snazzy, if I do say so myself. And I do. Frequently. Come check me out! Made of Awesome


Fiction

8th February 2010 | 7 Comments

My new job is quite conducive to listening to music or audio books for the majority of the day. While I must admit that I miss the social interaction of my old job, I’m really enjoying getting to listen to books all day. Since I hear them at work and read them before bed, I [...]


Things I love right now

25th November 2009 | 6 Comments

1. Burt’s Bees Natural Acne Solutions Purifying Gel Cleanser – First of all, let me tell you that “gel” is not an accurate term for this face wash. It’s really liquidy and thin. However, that isn’t a negative for me. I just didn’t want you to be surprised by the lack of “gel” like I [...]


Why I love Amazon.com

1st May 2009 | 8 Comments

I am consistently impressed with the customer service I receive from Amazon. This latest experience, however, exceeded my wildest expectations. My Kindle suddenly and inexplicably died on me. I tried a soft-reset, a hard reset and even removed the battery for a while. When my resuscitation efforts proved futile, I called customer service. I spoke [...]


Things I’m Loving Right Now

1. Arm & Hammer Detergent with OxiClean. This stuff is WONDERFUL! It took all the stinky milk smell out of Maddie’s blankets. Our clothes seem so much cleaner since I’ve started using it. 2. OxiClean Laundry Stain Removal. It’s like Spray ‘N Wash, but OxiClean. Maddie got strawberry juice on her brand new white t-shirt [...]


Hair

My hair is well below my shoulders now. It’s amazing to me to see the pictures of Maddie’s birth and my hair wasn’t even to my chin. It’s grown so very quickly in this last year, but it’s different since I had Maddie. My hair is now super wavy and UNFORTUNATELY frizzy. Unless, of course, [...]


My vacuum sucks

29th November 2007 | 8 Comments

Heh Heh… I’m so witty. I got a Dyson. The Absolute Animal, to be specific. I love it with the fire of a thousand suns. I vacuumed my living room the day before I picked up my Dyson, so I immediately came home to vacuum again just to see what vile and horrible things the [...]


A Dirty Job, by Christopher Moore

23rd August 2007 | 1 Comment

I’ve already recommended Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal, also by Christopher Moore. So, you should trust me when I say that I’m doing you a favor when I recommend A Dirty Job. If you’ve read any of Mr. Moore’s other books, you know that he’s a fan of using the same [...]


New and Improved

19th August 2007 | 1 Comment

Since I do an awful lot of reading, I’ve decided to start reviewing books on my blog. I plan to review a book a week and there will be a handy little link over there to the left that will let you purchase the book directly from Amazon, if you so choose. Stay tuned for [...]
