How to Nurture Your Jane Austen Obsession. I kind of want the dish towel, of all things. 🙂 Why It's Ok to Stay In Tonight. Not that I needed any more justification, but several of these are spot-on for me (the second, and the last two). A really scary true story...
Technically this should bee called 100 Foods & Drinks, since it has several beverages on it, but whatever. A friend had this on Facebook, and I was interested to see how many I had already eaten. (There may have been some intensive Googling, since I didn't even know...
The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking #1) by Patrick Ness Let me start by saying that I'm glad Alycia posted about this book and recommended it, because I probably wouldn't have found it otherwise. It's the story of Todd, the last young boy in Prentisstown, a...
As some of you might know, I struggle with insomnia pretty regularly, and have for several years. Since I know I'm not the only one out there with this issue, I thought I'd share some of the things that help me. The combination of the below has helped me go...

1. I'm not sure this comes across in everyday posting (ok, maybe a little, just given the name of my blog), but I am a huge geek. As is the boy. Like, we bonded over playing World of Warcraft together when we first started dating. And, I still play The Sims 3 (though,...
1. It's amazing how productive a day can be when you get solid sleep at night. I've slept great all week, and I've gotten so much done! Quite an unusual state of affairs for this insomniac. 2. Part of my trip back home involved helping my mom go through...
That's right, the design I've been toying with forever is FINALLY done! Meet the next addition to the Dragonflight Dreams shop designs: Pretty fierce, right? He'll fit right in with the dragon. I plan on making the screen this weekend, and then getting to...
I have something a little different and fun for today's What I Wore: a recap of a whole week! I took my trusty tripod & camera (and iPhone) with me on vacation last week, and thought it'd be neat to do a mini chronicle of what I wore each day. I didn't always have the...
