I've Been Away

Hey there everyone!

I hope that all of my loyal blog readers have been doing well and are having a wonderful holiday season, I know for the most part I have been.

I've haven't posted in almost a month! I can't even believe it. I haven't been reading much either lately, with the holiday and also had the flu once, for about a week, which meant in turn more work, less sleep, reading, and blogging time available. But I'm hoping to be back. There's just one glitch: my poor laptop has some sort of virus and I've been trying to stay off of it until I can get it properly fixed. My addiction to computer time is sad, and I'm often found sitting on the couch staring into a vast nothingness....

Though, I will say, lack of computer has started another addiciton: All in the Family....but that's another story for another post.

What I have read since last posting: The Crying Tree by Naseem Rakha.

I absolutely loved this book. I think it's a big part of the reason I've not been reading much since I finished it. Naseem Rakha's story just wouldn't let me go. I still find myself thinking about it. If this is on your TBR list my friends...read it tomorrow! If it's not, put it there.

My copy went so quick on Paperbackswap.com I completely forgot to write a review of it. I'm ashamed of myself really, but I'm glad that someone else is getting a chance to be taken away by this sad story.

I'm currently reading The Fourth Queen by Debbie Taylor. It's slow going, but I'm in it. I did unfortunately spill hot coco on my copy last night...I need a more reliable nightstand....luckily I have a hardback copy and I actually left the dust jacket on, so I don't think there is too much damage.

That's pretty much it for reading. Other things I've been into lately...Twitter. Craig Ferguson talks so much about 'the twitter' that I had to go and make my account more useful (Yes, I take my lead from celebrity's it seems...) Thanks to my friend Sari over at The View From Sari's World I'm learning to use twitter even better, and I think that I may have the hang of it. I wish that I had a cell phone that I could use it from easier, but for now, I'm doing well.

Oh, and go ahead and click on that link up there. Sari has a couple of contests going on that I think you'll enjoy....

So, that's my update post. I can make no garuntee's that I'll be any more active in the upcoming weeks, with Christmas coming, and a computer virus. But I'll try. Please follow me on twitter so I can learn even better how to use it. I now know what RT means and I do it often....hopefully I'm using it the right way LOL.
