1. Best Quote of the Week: Oh, how I love Jennifer Love Hewitt! Ever since the time she took credit for the stretched-out-sweater-cuff look (I read an article where she said she felt flattered that young teenage girls were all wearing their sweaters stretched out with the cuffs hanging down their hands, since she invented that "look"...hee hee), I love her. I especially enjoyed this quote....
"...I like my boobs. They've always served me well. They're good."
Heeeeeeee!!!!!! Boobalicious!
2. I have been following the heart-breaking story of Lola the Dachshund, an adorable 10 week old doxie who was thrown out of a 3rd story balcony. She almost died, but luckily she has survived and Natty and I really, really, really, really want to adopt her. Really. We are ready to jump in the car and drive to Alabama to get her. Unfortunately, so are 10 million other people, thanks to People Magazine! I filled out an adoption application, but I'm pretty sure my chances are hideously bad. :^( But at least Lola is on the mend!
3. I am so excited for The Avengers movie, I can't stand it! It's coming out May 4th....here is a link for the trailer!
4. Cool new website alert! Coffee with a Canine. Lucy and I will be interviewed there soon. I will be sipping a cup of French roast coffee. And Lucy will be sipping a latte with cinnamon on top.
5. I decided to read Casino Royale by Ian Fleming for my Penelope Project this month. It doesn't have a heroine named Penelope, but it does have Miss Moneypenny, which is just as good. It's the very first installment of the James Bond series by Fleming. And it doesn't hurt that I keep imagining Daniel Craig in boy short swim trunks. Schwing!
6. I also added Avi Steinberg's book Running the Books: The Adventures of an Accidental Prison Librarian to my TBR pile. As you may recall, Avi wrote an article about porno librarians, and my book Sweet Magik was casually mentioned as a soft-porn selection. (*waiting for laughter to stop.....still waiting...Christ, it's not that funny already*) Anyhoo, I decided some payback was in order. So, I'm going to read his book. Which I am pretty sure is not pornographic. But it is about a librarian.
7. Well, that's a wrap for today. I'm off to plan my workshop for conference.
Ciao,
Penelope
