ridiculous weather

Have I mentioned that it snowed again here? I didn't think it was supposed to snow over here. I guess this is my punishment for staying in Washington rather than being adventurous and going for a job in Arizona like I was threatening to do. But no, I just had to stay relatively close to home. That was silly. Everytime I see the national weather map showing the 80 degrees that it is in Arizona I want to die. I'm so incredibly jealous, especially when it's been under 40 here for a while. I like my summer clothes better! But I suppose it's never too late to check out Arizona. Maybe I should buy a winter vacation home from Scottsdale Fine Properties!

another way to free books

I've been a member of GoodReads for a few years now, but only just recently discovered that they do ARC giveaways just like LibraryThing. So I've been selecting books through there as well. So far I haven't been selected, but I'm sure I'll get one soon. I also just finished the ARC I received through LibraryThing. It was pretty good. I'll post a review soon.

interesting

I stumbled upon an interesing website. It gives information on all the different file extensions there are out there, like docx. What happens is you find your file extension on their list, click the link, and it tells you all about it. You can learn about the differences in music file types and everything else. I think this would be a very beneficial website for those who don't know much about computers. The docx explanation is a good one because so many don't realize there's a difference in the new Word programs. I know I didn't realize Microsoft had changed the file name until I purchased the new program and tried to send a document to someone who had an old version. This website could save people a lot of hassle.

fridge toys

So either my cat has a life I don't know about or someone who lived here before me also had a cat. I found three cat toys that I didn't give my cat under the fridge. I can only assume they were hidden there by a prior cat. Funny thing is Jewels saw me retrieve them so now she seems to think the fridge produces toys.

wow

One of my Christmas presents finally arrived! I can't believe how long it took. I know the snow and the fact that what I wanted was on back-order contributed, but getting your Christmas present in time for Valentine's day is a little ridiculous don't you think? Now that I finally have it, I can list my sweater drawers on the new social network site that lets you network with others who have the same things as you.

free books!

I signed up to be an Early Reviewer at LibraryThing. I actually got a free book sent to me! I'm very excited. I hope I get some more books. Elle magazine also sends out free books to review. I got some of those a while back. Free books make me happy.
