In case you’ve missed it (and yes, I’ve sort of beat readers over the head with it, but I’m excited – what can I say?), Wendy and I are hosting a Stephen King reading month – King’s March. It just so happens that this week’s top ten prompt, as hosted by The Broke and theContinue reading “Stephen King: A Top Ten List”

All Grown Up: A Top Ten List
Often what we read and fall in love with as children sticks with us long into adulthood – this is true of me, at the very least. While beloved classics of my childhood may not hold up under my more discerning adult scrutiny (ahem, Nancy Drew), that does not mean that I don’t get allContinue reading “All Grown Up: A Top Ten List”
What I Like About…: A Top Ten List
I’ll keep this week’s list simple. The topic: things I like about blogging and things I like about reading. Both have benefits and drawbacks, but I’ll focus on the positive. What I love about blogging: 10. Online Journal: I often include a bit of what is going on in my life in my posts becauseContinue reading “What I Like About…: A Top Ten List”
And I’m Expected To Swoon? A Top Ten List
Swoon: To be overwhelmed by ecstatic joy, a state of ecstasy or rapture. Used online as an action, to show that someone is attracted or interested in someone or something. (Urban Dictionary) I’ve already listed my favorite romances, couples I think would make it in the real world, and fictional men I’d find attractive (ifContinue reading “And I’m Expected To Swoon?

Why I Love Daredevil
I’ll warn you in advance, today’s post has little point, It’s strictly for my own enjoyment and your edification. You can thank me later. As it happens, I’m neither a comic book fanatic, nor particularly knowledgeable about them. I rarely enter a debate about which superhero would win in any given situation – mostly becauseContinue reading “Why I Love Daredevil”
YOU WOULD CRY TOO: A TOP TEN LIST
I’m not a professional home renovator. I’m not even a particularly good DIY-er. So please don’t get the wrong idea by any of the following. It’s all in good fun, to slog along with my slow house progress, see here, here, and here. If there is one thing I’ve learned about home renovation it’s thatContinue reading “YOU WOULD CRY TOO: A TOP TEN LIST”
ROLE MODELS: A TOP TEN LIST
I think we can all agree how wonderful and talented Stephen King is. If you can’t, I’m pretty sure you’ve stumbled onto the wrong website. For those who do agree, I think it’s evident that he can create beloved characters – Stu, Franny, Ben, Bev, Danny, Jake, etc. However, he is just as likely toContinue reading “ROLE MODELS: A TOP TEN LIST”
Guidance Counseling: A Top Ten List
(To be quite honest, I am totally stumped as to this week’s top ten prompt as hosted by The Broke and the Bookish – I’ve already done settings I’d like to see more of, things I avoid, and topics I want more of – so you get the following instead. I am so sorry.) IContinue reading “Guidance Counseling: A Top Ten List”
The Anticipation Is Killing Me: A Top Ten List
I’m too tired this week to come up with anything remotely amusing for this week’s list introduction. So I’ll leave it at this: I hate anticipation. Whoever said anticipation is the purest form of pleasure lied. Who likes to wait? Or be surprised? Or not know something? I can assure you it’s not me. PatienceContinue reading “The Anticipation Is Killing Me: A Top Ten List”
2014: A Top Ten List
2013 was a bit of a mixed bag for me. There were parts that were very good and there were several that were…less so. I’ve spent the year trying to remember that I can’t control everything. I’ve also had to accept that some things just were not meant to happen (and to ignore all ofContinue reading “2014: A Top Ten List”
