Blew My Mind

I know you're hoping for a book title but sadly no.

Lately (okay, for a few years now) I've come to realize that I'm not that in touch with world events. Well, thank goodness for boredom and Yahoo.

1.5 Million year old footprints have just been found in Kenya. There's a picture of the print on the site so do go read. There's even a child's foot print! Think about it, a million and a half years ago a human ancestor was walking in the sands of Kenya.

Now I would have to go look at all the Homo erectus stuff to figure out who is whom (I wouldn't know how to use whom if a gun were to my head) but they (scientists cause seriously, who are 'they' usually?) say the ones before the Homo sapiens (that'd be us) walked with the same stride that we do now.

I'm telling you, my mind is completely blown. I read this one out to the hubby and even he was awe struck.

So imagine the feeling of stupidity that washed over me when I get to the bottom of the article.

They (seriously, who?) found footprints 3.75 million years old! These were from a previous incarnation of homo sapiens - CRAZY!

Sidetracked : So did they ever find the missing link? I didn't make that up, right?

Updated Sidetrack : Uh, never mind. I decided to go and look and I found the crazy and the sane and all the in between. It'd take me another 4 years of university to read every single person's thoughts on the subject so I'll just stick with mine.

My brain can't even comprehend that kind of time. That we have ancestors that walked the earth so long ago. Makes you realize we're just a blip.

So I'm going to enjoy my blip of time!

Sitting Idly By

Where the titles for some of these post come from is anyone's guess.

Turns out I was in an eating frenzy because my body had decided it was time to hibernate.

I kid you not. I went to bed at I guess 10am at the latest. Bob tried to wake me at 6pm and got my standard answer of 'one more hour?'. I remember him asking me questions 'are we going out when you get up? You needed eggs but I'm exhausted and just wanna get in my jammies. But you want eggs so I should stay dressed -'

I told him to forget the friggin' eggs and get in his jammies. He did and I went right back to sleep. I woke up when he climbed into bed. I woke up at midnight but then thought that since it was Saturday I should try to sleep longer so I would be up during the day with Bob.

2:30am I climbed out of bed.

Figuring it was Saturday I was going to watch Battlestar Galactica and do some computer stuff but something kept bothering me.

I feed the cats, do some internet and prepare to watch TV.

Wait! I didn't see LOST this week!

OMG it's only Wednesday!!

Actually it was Thursday early AM. I can't believe I couldn't remember the friggin day. I must need more protein in my diet or something.

So that's like 16 hours right? Yeah. Bad Cindy.

Bob took me out to breakfast though because I once again had to eat. Bob still had to go to work though so I'm on my own during the day. Bad things happen when I'm up during the day and Bob's not around.

I spend money.

What's saving me is my car battery is dead and the idea of getting the car booster out and boosting the car seems like too much energy.

Yeah, I know. I can't believe my body has allowed me the energy to keep breathing.

I mean, there's lazy and then there's LAZY.

Bob plans to work from home this afternoon so really I can just wait for his car if I want to go out and get some groceries. I'm considering buying a bag of every variety of cookie known to mankind.

Okay, I won't. But it's tempting.

Also, I'm currently reading Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole and yes, I'm reading the book out of order of the series. I have come to the part where we (I) meet the hero and uh, yeah.

The guy has horns.

I'm not talking little horns.

They are described as coming out his temples and then curving around his skull (I'm thinking just above his ears so it would look like a ring around his head) and I can't say I've ever read a romance where a H/H is in a form other than human.

Yes, I've read vamps and weres and even H/H with wings (those would be downy soft though) and all that but vamps are humanoid and weres have a human side so, yeah. They look human.

I keep picturing the heroine hanging off this guys horns when they get busy.

I'll let you know if I can get past it. I was really enjoying the heroine's side of things but wow, a guy with horns.

I may have to stop eating so I don't break this limb I'm hanging off of!

Intervention Might be Needed

It's almost 9am and I have eaten as much as I possibly can in a effort to stop myself from thinking of food.

I have been hungry with food on my mind all night and it's making me crazy. I decided 'fuck it' I'll just eat until I can't. Turns out I don't have near enough food to make that a reality.

I'm freaking out!!

I'm hoping that if I eat until I can't the damn grazing feeling that I've had for the last three days will go away!

And I need to go to bed soon. I don't think it's safe to sleep with so much food in the belly.

I want home-made chocolate chip, pecan cookies. I have no eggs which is the only thing stopping this gluttony in it's tracks.

My body wins. I surrender!!

I swear if I could find some cookies I would scarf them down like cookie monster.

Scared Myself

You know when you are 18 or 28 and you get a chest pain over your heart? You just think, 'meh, whatever'.

Well, last Friday early am (which means my late afternoon/evening) I had gotten myself quite riled up. That chest pain suddenly took on new meaning as I am now 38 and not overly active and well, food - it's bad.

Logically I knew it was probably a muscle pull. Course this same logic asked how considering I don't exercise and haven't done much of anything over the past week. If I had been painting or something I would understand. So round and round I went. Bob got up and I dumped my worries on him. At which point I got the lecture on how we are going to eat better and get healthy. Yuck.

Basically I've sat around for 4 days with chest pains wondering if I was being a dumbass for not going to a doctor (not once mentioning that point to Bob cause I'm not stupid).

Tonight the pain is gone so now I know it was a muscle pull. So I saved myself the 4 hours at emerg and the resulting lecture from the doctor.

That all said, I'm on these new pills and the weight is getting crazy. I gained 15 pounds in two months. I'm going to talk to my doc about it tomorrow. I figure I'll get no sympathy there.

Why can't they make anti-anxiety meds that cause rapid weight loss? Why is weight gain the side-effect? There is a part of me that wants to stop the meds to see if I would lose weight. I'm just not sure the panic attacks are worth being skinny. Hell, it was the anxiety that kept me from eating. Still is even when I'm on meds!

Guess that answers that question.

Must start exercising. I will now that I'm not worried my heart will explode from my chest.

Bah. I'm hating this already.

Wicked Burn by Beth Kery

Good news. It got better.

And our number of the day is F-I-V-E.

Cindy Blurb: Vic and Niall are neighbours (I see Niall and in my brain I pronounce is Nee-ail - painful) who for some reason start having banging sex. I mean wow.

So there's sex.

More sex.

Yep, more.

Oh, some talking! No wait. Those are instructions for where exactly Niall's legs should be.

Okay.

Oh no he didn't! Oh, yep, he did and Niall's fine with it.

Any plot? Finally.

Vic is a playwright and a huge gruff bear - grrrr. He was also dumped years ago by a woman who tore his insides out. Not literally cause he really wouldn't have survived. You get it.

Niall is I *think* a museum curator or something like that but her job isn't important because her personal life is a tragedy. No really. Tragic. It's what kept me turning the pages.

I KNOW! You'd think the sex would have kept me reading but not so much.

I don't want to spoil the story for anyone so that's all the plot you get - except there's sex, there's a blow-up, some good ol' hiding, then the chase, then the reckoning with lots of sex.

I'm calling this book romantica although there is nothing on the front, back or spine that says this. It says contemporary romance. Hold on. Berkley Sensation - maybe that's their sexy line.

I think this is probably milder than some of the romantica out there but still, I was a wee bit surprised. Yes, eyebrows were in the hair line at times.

I have mentioned before that it's the sexual tension that is important and yes, I'll be pissed if a door slams in my face just when things are getting good.

With that in mind, I find that sexual tension goes right out the window when two characters have sex in the first few chapters of the book. So that's one of my biases. But I'm glad I read most (and then skimmed to get to plot) of it to get to the meat of the story.

Things that didn't work for me:

1. You can use more than 12 words in a conversation. Try it. You might discover shit doesn't land on you.

2. A heroine who has had violence done to her is maybe not going to be open to certain things the first time the H/H have sex. After certain revelations in this story I felt that maybe a few things that happened in the bedroom were far from realistic.

3. The overly alpha male with submissive female. I need the female to fight back even if it's just a bit but I think that would run towards another personal bias.

I'm going with a C .

I've read romantica if Shannon McKenna fits the bill but I pretty much hated the one I read. Bad book! Bad!

I decided to try another author and see if romantica is something that works for me. I'm thinking not particularly but I'll probably try a few more authors before deciding if this genre is for me or not.

If you've never read romantica and you want to try it I would say this is as good a place to start as any.

Now, I wonder what I'll pick up next.

Seriously, I have no clue.

Still Going!

I did the 1001 post today but wanted to let you know I'm still reading.

And I'm way out there, clinging to the limb!

I reading Wicked Burn by Beth Kery. Definitely not the kind of book I've read before. I have to be honest and say, I'm a bit bored with the sex already and I think I'm only a 1/3 of the way through.

Ooops.

And I prefer sex in my books but well, this is definitely more erotic I guess. I think it's probably romantica although I'm waiting for the romance part.

So, here I am, reading and clinging to my branch.

If you hear a *snap* sometime today that would be me falling out of my tree.

*sigh*

Fine.

That'd be me falling out of my nut tree.

I'm with Holly on this one, what a list! I know I have glommed certain authors - Teresa Medeiros was one. Brenda Joyce, I've probably read all of JAK/Quick/Castle before 2000, Susan Wiggs etc.

231 read. I can say that the titles I haven't read aren't really on my radar. Weird. And not all these books were favs of mine. Some I just barely made it through.

And when it comes to classic literature - I suck. I studied Hamlet like 3 different years - 2 in highschool and once for sure in university. Ugh.

How about you? What does your list look like?


You can find the original list at Romantic Times

Buying Books? You Betcha!

I have been on a book shopping extravaganza for the last month.

Nath had talked about how Chapters online was going to change their shipping policies so I was worried about buying online. I'm cheap in the 'if I don't have to spend the money, then why would I?' kind of way.

Well, I decided to test the waters with the usual 'shipping is free over 39 bucks'.

I sent in my first order (yes, first) only to realize I had forgotten a book I really wanted. I went and checked stock at the local stores and not one of them had the book.

The book is Untamed by Pamela Clare and it was released just this December. How can there be no stock at any of the stores in my area!? I was going to write a letter and then decided to look up a few other books that also weren't in any of the stores.

Another online order started.

Let's start:

Wild Thing anthology - bought it for Meljean Brook and hope to get sucked in by the other authors. We'll see. Damn I used to love Maggie Shayne. Wonder if it's in first person?

To Seduce a Sinner by Elizabeth Hoyt. Not to spoil anything for people but this title has been one I've been entering a lot on my spreadsheet for the AAR poll. I got curious.

Aussie Rules by Jill Shalvis - she seems to get good reviews and I don't believe I've read a book by her so when I saw this at the Toronto Indigo I grabbed it.

Dogs and Goddessess - I have to admit to being a dumbass. I thought it was an anthology but turns out the three authors wrote the story as one. Crap. I really have to think about it now. Why Annie, why!?

Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole - I got burned out with the Amazing Race style of her books so I haven't read the last two Dark Deeds and Dark Needs but I'll get to them. And knowing that, I obviously needed the latest one to add to my collection.

I'll spare you the Palmer books I bought (I think I bought three so if you are counting bucks they should be added in)

Wicked Burn by Beth Kery. I think this one might be straight erotica but I'm not sure. I've decided to take a chance and test the waters - I hear there is some good stuff going on out there.

Coyotes Mate by Lora Leigh - she has a fan base and I am a paranormal girl so things should fit.

Reining in the Rancher by Karen Templeton - I have seen a few discussions lately about this author and have been wondering what her stories are like. I'm guessing they have kids because the books listed at Chapters had covers with kids. Not a good omen for me but we'll see.

Untamed by Pamela Clare - very intrigued. Loved Ride The Fire and want to read more by this author. Have to say the glimpse of the plaid and then the arm band got me. I'm not a fan of naked people on the covers of my books but this one works for me. I'm thinking it's the arm bad for sure. I just want to grab it. Yum.

Perfecting Amanda by (okay, I have to go look up the author) oh! Bonnie Dee. I was browsing to find a book to reach the 39 bucks and remembered that many people have read and enjoyed Bonnie Dee. I figured why not. I know this one is erotica.

Private Arrangements by Sherry Thomas - if you looked at the interim results at AAR this book was in the list for Most Luscious. To me that means sexy so I thought, what the hell, I'll buy it. Imagine my surprise when someone said there was no sex in the book. Oh, hell no. I asked LinnieGayl who has read the book and she said there is sex. So I'm out there on the limb but hey, trying new stuff is always good. And now that I've beat last year's record of dismal reading I can stop reading it if it's not my thing.

And then totally funny

I bought Start Late, Finish Rich, Canadian Edition - originally a ton of money, now in the bargain basement price for 5.69. I can cough up that much money to see what the guy has to say. I wonder if any of it is relevant now?

I also finally bought Why We Suck by Dr Denis Leary. I wanted to buy it in the store but I would have had to pay regular price. What the hell is that about? Why can't I get the online price at the store? So really, wanting this book pushed me to try Chapters online shipping again.

Oh! He has a website! (don't click on at work - Asshole starts immediately) I love this asshole! And Rescue Me is one fucked up addictive series. "All Leather Cow Interior" Seriously, how can you not love this guy?

As an aside to my Canadian friends:

I put my orders in and clicked on the free shipping. The first order has shipped in full. The second order - all were shown to be in stock - has only partially shipped. I'm keeping an eagle eye on them because I'm not paying for shipping!

And finally:

When you give (to the economy like I have so clearly done in this past month) you shall receive.

I won a book at The Book Binge!! Yay me!!


I so love these kind of books because I never buy them. I just lust after them and wish I could just splurge on (it's 21 bucks in store - that's two romance novels!) them. If I do splurge it's usually on design books.

You know, the more I think about pricing online to in store I get grumpier. The price online if 6 bucks cheaper but I don't just browse online. I browse in store. I wonder if I should start taking pen and paper in and writing down all the pretty books I see that I want to buy.

Sorry, train of thought jumped again. Back on track!

Thanks to Book Binge I get to have fun mail to my house. In fact, for most of this week I should only be getting fun mail!
