mornings will be the death of me.

Why, blogger, do you hate me so? i press enter and you assume I'm done? no more blogging for this girl, despite the fact she only put a heading in? WHAT? you deeply confuse me sometimes website, but you let me ( most of the time ) release my thoughts into cyberspace and for this I am grateful. And my normal style of writing has, for some unknown reason, left the building.

Let's see if I can find it again, shall we?

So, I shall tell you about my list. 49). is still easy. I posted Rach's letter and I really want a reply soon. I'm thinking if I save, fly to melbourne for a long weekend ( one I make up myself, not one that's official with higher priced plane tickets ), visit Rach, hang out with my amazing family down that way, then cross off 79). because I will find somewhere in Melbourne I havn't visited before, then come home I will a) have an amazing time and b) feel accomplished for being able to cross something off my list.

53). was one of those things on the list I dreaded. I can't lose weight. It just doesn't work for me. I hate not eating just because I love food so much. I can't exercise consistantly because it's bloody painful and you tend to avoid stuff that is painful, right? So yes, I dreaded trying to lose weight because I'm one of those people that when you think about losing weight you put more on. Stupid right? But I have been blessed! I hope, nay, I pray to the universe, that this weird thing my appetite is doing sticks around. It died. Literally, my appetite got up and left. Now I have a snack and dinner and thats all I really need. I don't understand and I don't really need to. I've been putting off telling people for 3 weeks, because I didn't want to jynx it ( the universe is evil that way ).

I am planning on completing 88). soon. It won't be too much of a challenge because I'm already a pretty honest person but I will be telling people I'm doing a week of complete honesty. Which means a bunch of questions people probs don't want real answers to. Or, to make me squirm. Which, tbh, takes alot. I also think a question can often reveal more than an answer... keep that in mind folks.

Finally, 96). is bugging me. I had 12 posts last month. I figure 12 or more a month would be pretty neat, and fufill 'consistantly'. So, despite my dying internet, my early mornings of late and the fact that my computer is near-full and is choking a bit I've been trying to blog. YEAH ME. Not really, I've avoided sitting on msn and facebook ( which, btw, is all my computer knows. It leads a boring, repetitive life. Poor Harry the laptop ) and reading more. I was trying to complain less on here, but dammit, that's just me. Em Complain-Alot. or Alice Complain-Alot =] more about that later... But yes. I think this will be ten posts for february. I finished the 2nd Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter book already so thats 11. And then I can tell you all about Alice, and orientation day, and... something. How exciting.

Muchlove.

book #4

A kindly lent me Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton. First off, THANKY RACH! she recommended this book to me ( Well, A did first, but that was before I started my list and therefore wasn't compelled/forced to read all recommended to me ) and I loved it. So much. I'm already ripping into the second one. I apologise in advance because the next several book reviews will be me pretty much gushing over how fucking UHMAZING this series is.

It's quite similar to the Sookie Stackhouse series, which I also Loved. Yes it's capitalised. Love might be a strong word but it's not conveying just how mindblowingly special these books are. I'm such a vampire series junky. haha.

No but this one is different! It's got zombies too, and other un-dead and lycanthropes which is trippy speak for Were-creatures. The main character, she's so cynical and bad-ass and honest to herself. Which is going really well with my love affair with honesty I'm having atm. I'd quite like to live in her reality, which Hamilton paints so beautifully. Not many people can write like she can.

Obviously, 5 stars. I'd read this again and again and again... etc. until the pages fall out and its no longer a book but worn pages that resemble a book. I'd also recommend it to anyone and everyone. So, yeah, go read it! you most likely won't regret it ( because nothing is certain in this world; who am I to know you're not a spaz who can't/won't appreciate an excellent book? )
