Summer

Summer is officially here! We launched the boat yesterday!

So Hubby and I are on our way to launch the boat when he tells me that he meant to get gas but forgot. I asked him how much gas was in the tank. He tells me that there is about 3/8 of a tank left.

Okay....

What happens if I run out of gas? "Don't worry. You should be fine." But what if I run out of gas? "Then you call me." And what are you going to do? Swim out a tank of gas to me? Will you swim with it St. Bernard style in your teeth? Or shark style, strapped to your back like a dorsal fin?

Tiny smile from Hubby.

Then I turn to him and say: "I love how you take care of me."

Tiny smile disappears. Huh.

It's Been a While.....

Hello my poor neglected readers (and new readers too!). I've missed you all! Hopefully you will be just as happy as I am that this blog has returned from the land of dead blogs. Hopefully.

Anywho. It's been a long 3 years! To sum up: Moved. Went back to school. Took a massive test and became a Registered Vet Tech. Picked up a new obsession: KNITTING! Thanks to Britney. Acquired some new animals. Despite last sentence, marriage still intact.

And, that's about it! I think this time around, I am not going to focus on the minutiae of my life. But maybe sometimes I will. We'll see!

Okay, maybe a little minutiae is in order. Currently I am.....
Reading: something by Robin Hobb
Listening to: B.O.B., Gorillaz
Knitting: Lace Beret, featured in the 2009 holiday issue of Vogue Knitting (a.k.a.-porn)
More minutiae coming soon!

Reading

Books of Booky Past: these are books that I have recently (or not so recently) read, and recommend.

the plain truth: jodi picoult
This book provided a wealth of information about the Amish community. It was wonderful.

the time traveler's wife: audrey niffenegger (sp?)
This book is like the movie Serendipity. Wow! the first time around, still pretty great for consequent readings.

Present Booky Books: do I really need to explain what this is?

dragon haven: robin hobb
Yeah, it's fantasy. So is Edward Cullen.



Books of the Future: Oooooo!
