lost in some good books : )

that's been me the past few days.  it's been FABULOUS!  i've collected 10 or 11 of the Argeneau series, added to my Dark Hunter collection, even picked up an Arcane Society book by Amanda Quick the other day for $3!  woot!  i love a good book bargain!  in that same sale (at BAM yesterday), i found a buy 2 get 1 free deal for lynsay's books, and scooped that right up.  it helped that the book i was intently searching for (The Renegade Hunter) was part of the score.  : )  


i also got to hang out w/ trish (& koltin) yesterday.  al had to work late, so she invited me over for leftover wedding fare.  yummy!  AND she sent me home w/ a tub of leftover potato salad, which i must say is a weakness.  mmmm.  while i was over there, i took advantage of her scale & discovered that i've lost 6 more lbs & w/ a little effort should be well on my way of losing another 20 or so by the end of the year.  (in dreamland, i could lose 50 by the end of the year, but i don't know that i can put in THAT much effort in the next 6 months, so... yeah.)


what else?  bret has been a very nice roommate lately, so that's good.  he should be able to get a new battery for his car soon, which will help him feel less trapped, i think.  i know i feel trapped when i don't have my car for one reason or another!!  *laugh*  


today after work i went to phil's to hang out w/ leyton.  we played catch, some, but mostly just watched Disney & read.  : )  last night i tried to go to bed at 10:30, couldn't sleep, got up at 11:30 & read til 1.  i finished that book a few minutes ago... next up i am re-reading Dream Warrior, which is one of Sherri's Dream Hunter books (same universe as Dark Hunter, but a different kind of immortal *grin*).


tonight i can stay up til whenever i want reading, because tomorrow i have the WHOLE DAY OFF to veg out & read.  our family usually has a 4th of july picnic, but i haven't heard about one happening this year, and even if it is happening, it is just TOO DANG HOT for me to want to go hang out outdoors.  altho the house gets hot during the day because the sun beats down on it, so i might be driving around in the air conditioned chloe at some point... we'll see!  


um.  what else to catch up on?  i think i'm giving up on my cute-boy-work-crush for now.  things were friendly for awhile, but i don't really get the "i like you/you like me" vibe from him, so i'm going to just set my sights elsewhere & enjoy the perfect bubble that was two fridays ago.  : )  


so, what's been going on in your neck of the woods?  i have some blog reading to catch up on!  : )  


ttfn!
