Woe is Me.....

It's been a rather lousy week for me. First of all, #%&&$#% Blogger decided that my blog was spam!! I had to appeal for a review. If I hadn't been considering a move to self-hosting, this would have pushed me over the edge. Of course, I really don't think I have the time right now to make the move. It's a little scary thinking about it.

To top off an already lousy week, my computer went down. At the moment, it is sitting somewhere at a Best Buy waiting for a Geek Squad dude to fix it. They told me 9 days, but I threw a major hissy fit in the middle of the store, so I'm hoping to have it back sooner.

Of course, this means, I'm pretty much off-line until I get it back. Hence the sudden departure. Hopefully, I won't lose all my friendly reader friends!! If I'm not around, have a safe 4th, and cross your fingers that I'll be back up and running by Monday!

(ps...I'm at work now. And I already have 3 reviews to put up!!)

I just got my New Computer....

On the off-chance you've been wondering what happened to me, I have been trying to get up and running on my new computer!! It's so nice...and fast! My other computer was about 6 years old. As you know, in these days of technology, it was a dinosaur. But this one is great. I'm not one for a laptop....since it's used by everyone, so a nice pc was what we went with. And a super 19" wide screen. Man...I'm loving it! BUT I'm still trying to get everything re-loaded to it. And although I had a recovery done from my old computer, I'm still trying to find a lot of my old files. Oh well....I'll find them eventually!

As for reading, I'm knee-deep in A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry. I'm reading it for the Canadian Challenge, and it really is fantastic, although it's 600 pages. It really took me awhile to get into it...but now, I just can't read fast enough. I also just started Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah. Not too sure what to think about it yet.

In other book news, while doing some blog hopping this morning, I found that The Pager Flipper is holding a Giveaway for March. 6 Books!! Now that's pretty cool. All you have to do is email Chelsea and let her know you want to be included. You should check out her blog. It's great! A new one to add to the blogroll!

Have a Happy Sunday!!
