Sunday Salon





Welcome to the new Sunday Salon. A weekly update post about my boring life. ;)

Weather Small Talk: Mildest winter EVER! I'm loving it!

On The Idiot Box: Besides The Vampire Diaries, I'm not totally engrossed with anything lately. Oh, I keep religiously watching my shows but I'm a little bored with things. :( I did rent the first season of the BBC's Being Human and watched it. Very....interesting/weird. 



Weekly Reads: Ugh, I'm not off to a great start with my adult books only month. I've started Midnight in Austenland by Shannon Hale and I'm liking it, but I'm too distracted to really get into it. 

Crazy Kitty: She insists on knocking all her toy balls all over my bedroom floor but once she's done she doesn't play with them. Maybe she just likes the way they look spread across the floor. They are colorful. 



This Week: Was boring! I exercised all week like a good little girl, though, and lost two more pounds. 

Movie of the Week: I finally watched Water For Elephants and for some reason thought it was going to be a horribly sad ending...WTH?! I know I should be glad it ended well, but I'm still so confused. 

Food Talk: :( I keep eating the same 6 meals over and over. They all taste fine and I'm not bored with them but I should probably come up with something new. Monotony kills! 

Soccer Sightings: Um, so I'm watching my game yesterday and couldn't help but notice how cold it looked. The wind was blowing and every player was wearing long sleeved shirts...all but Arbeloa, that is. Why would the undead need to keep warm?  Mwaa ha ha! 



Music Discoveries: Well, to be fair I only like the music, no singing. I just don't like rap. No Church in the Wild. 


Plans For The Week: Lot's of bookish things, I think. Rebecca Stead author of When You Reach me is coming to our local library and LTUE is this weekend. I've never been before but I think I'm going to some of it.

  1. Hey, I'm liking that music! You knew I would, huh?

    I still haven't seen Water for Elephants. Maybe some day.

    Why haven't I heard of this BBC Being Human show? Gosh I can't keep up!

    Yay for LTUE.. I think it will be fun, even if there isn't a really BIG name coming.

    You should blog what your six meals are. Then maybe I can follow The Jenny Diet and lose 85 pounds. :) Well, I'd be good with 50. That's all I'm asking for.

    1. LOL! Yes, as a matter of fact, I did think you'd like that song. I LOVE the beat!

      The show is weird and I'm not sure I'd even recommend it.

      I'm afraid my six meals would bore you to tears. I tell people about them sometimes and they look at me like I'm crazy!

  4. I'm with Suey... I'm interested to know what your meals are. I'm stuck in a rut that involves lots of beans/Mexican dishes lately.

    It'll be interesting to hear about these adult books you're reading (although that makes it sound like you're reading "adult" books. haha) Hope you like Midnight in Austenland.

  5. What the heck?!? Another author going out to your library? No fair. I am yet to check out Being Human but it sounds like the kind of thing I'd be interested in.

    1. I know, we're very lucky. Being Human is rather intriguing but a little weird too.
