can’t you stay awhile
whisper my name so softly
until morning’s light
The following is just some babbling I have saved from this week. Read at your own peril. š
Points 1 through 5 and point 9 are safely behind the f-lock at Livejournal. Just so you know. š
Sixth – National Novel Writing Month is in full effect! And Iām hopelessly behind in words but Iām still plugging away. Part of me just wants to quit. I donāt know what the characters do for a living (theyāre starting to become spies or something) and I donāt know how soon to have them hook up. But I donāt want to quit so I just keep writing I think itās because I like imagining the main fella. In my mind, he is played by Joe Manganiello. And who wouldnāt want to imagine Joe as 1) a great kisser, 2) the hero of a romance novel, 3) shirtless in just his skivvies?
he could seriously star in many romance novels, right?
Seventh – Desperate Housewives. I TRIED to watch this seasonās episodes of Desperate Housewives. I think I made it through one episode and a third of the way through the second one. I couldnāt keep going. Iām not sure why but I found the whole thing ridiculous. I didnāt think that watching a show I hadnāt watched before for the sake of my favorite fellow– Charles Mesure– would be so flippinā difficult. I had done it before (the Kiwi show Outrageous Fortune) but Desperate Housewives just doesnāt do it for me. I actually stopped watching during one of Charlesā scenes! This is how much I couldnāt watch it. I failed as a Charles fangirl. And I am truly sorry. I think my next try will just be to forward to his scenes, take in his wonderfulness, and move on to other things.
I liked him so much better on V
Eighth – Tech toys. A few weeks ago he turned in the Epic 4G and purchased an iPhone 4. We all know that I am an Android enthusiast. The husband calls me a āGoogle Girlā because my online dealings are tightly tied to Google products. I use Gmail, Google Talk, Google Voice, Google Docs, Google Maps, and I always encourage others to do the same. Having said all of that, I am jealous of the husbandās iPhone. Itās so pretty. And it just works as it should. I know I shouldnāt be jealous but I like new tech toys and he has a new toy.
I wouldnāt mind the Galaxy Nexus. I just read a review on it and it sounds absolutely droolworthy! Too bad 1) itās only confirmed with Verizon and 2) thereās not likely any way weāre switching carriers again for awhile. Still, I can hope it comes to Sprint and that I can afford it when it does.
The Kindle Fire is tempting me with its decent price point and integration with Amazon. I get most of my music through Amazon (though the new Google Music might be getting some of my attention as well) as well as my books, so the Kindle Fire sounds like a great deal. Unfortunately, after having an iPad 2 for awhile, Iāve been spoiled. Mostly I just want to be able to video chat on my tablet, amongst the other stuff. If I didnāt want that particular feature, Iād probably be cool with the Kindle Fire and Iād want it more.
The Transformer Prime by Asus is set to come out in December. I am also tempted by that device. I’d want the keyboard too. I’d have to get rid of my netbook if I got the Transformer Prime. Hmm.
Tenth – My hair is so long! I spent most of the summer tucking and braiding it because I had to walk to work. It was so easy to do and I guess during that time I didnāt really notice how much it grew. Well, Iām noticing now! It seems healthy enough until you look down at the ends. Oh so many split ends! And itās so long that it creeps me out a little when Iām wearing short sleeved shirts and the hair brushes against my arms. I want to get it cut several inches so that the dead stuff can go.
Now, I must eat something and start cleaning a bit here. What a glamorous life I lead! š
