helllllo there!

Remember me? I used to post here. Yeah, I know. But OE is pretty much over now and I have actual free time again. It's a weird thing.

I got a Kindle for Xmess! I'm more in love with it than I thought I would be. It's named Melody (for Melody Pond, yo) and it's got a sweet cover. And it's chock full of all kinds of things that I love to read, because I have spent an embarrassing amount of money on books already. Like $300+. Sheesh.

I've been trying to pick my stitching project back up and that's sort of been successful. I should remember to take an update photo tonight. Although it still doesn't actually look like anything...

Sherlock, you guys. Best thing ever on TV or best thing EVAR on TV? That Cumberbatch fella is headed for great things. (like the Star Trek movie!!)

My hands are so cold at my desk that I can barely get my phone to respond. Maybe I need to get a pair of those capacitive touch gloves just to wear at work? That's kind of sad.

Six weeks from now we'll be in New Orleans and getting ready to sail away on The Rock Boat. I'm super excited about it! I really should work on adding more stuff to my TRB XII playlist. Of course, then I would have to stop listening to podcasts long enough to listen to some music.

Speaking of that, watching the footage of the capsized cruise ship in Italy makes me sad and ridiculously angry.

And thus concludes the Readers Digest of Things That are currently going on in my life.

I love my kindle as well. Just be careful of the covers. I found out after I bought it that some covers drain the kindle. Mine was fine for 4 months then my battery kept getting drained and it kept resetting etc etc. I took the cover off and while I still have issues with it restarting if I load too man books onto it, it's ok. Apparently it has something to do with the metal clips on some of the covers that drain the battery.

I have discovered so many new authors since I got my kindle. Best buy ever.

Oh, thanks for the advice. My cover definitely does not have any metal clips on it or anything though.
